Bug Description
It isn't clear how to reject the EULA and cancel the installation of ttf-mscorefonts
Installing via Synaptic, I first get a dialog that includes the full text of the EULA and a checkbox labelled "Do you accept the license terms?" There is a help button and a forward button but no way to explicitly decline the EULA.

On the second step, a user who has selected "Forward" without checking the EULA box sees a new message:
> Declined "TrueType Core Fonts for the Web EULA "
> If you do not agree to the "TrueType Core Fonts for the Web EULA " license terms you cannot install this software. the installation of this program will be cancelled:

However, installation is not cancelled. `dpkg-query` clearly shows the package as installed:
amanda@mona:~$ dpkg-query -l ttf-mscorefonts

ii ttf-mscorefont 3.4+nmu1ubun all Installer for Microsoft TrueTyp
The first screen should give a user the option to explicitly reject the EULA, and having rejected it, installation should actually be cancelled.
Sorry, should have added, I'm on Ubuntu 13.10
