thanks! that message from the terminal is shown because i actually pinned this package as -1

i only could solve this running "sudo dpkg -i" on an equivalent .deb package from Debian’s repository that doesn’t ask that EULA question (and i guess that this package will be removed from Debian repository as soon that situation appears there as appears from Ubuntu repository, because Debian’s politics) - and i use to run a kind of cleanup bash script that removes all these crappy typefaces

i can’t remember which packages uses ttf-mscorefonts-installer as dependency, this situation happened when i run this bash script in a fresh-install (Ubuntu 15.10 beta 2):

sudo apt-get install build-essential git cmake libsdl1.2-dev libboost-dev

(perhaps it is from ubuntu-restricted-extras i use to install because codecs?)

i also think that wine has, almost for sure, ttf-mscorefonts-installer as dependency
