Bug Description

Please merge latest version (3.6) with Debian.

The merge adds two fixes not available in the Ubuntu delta:

  * Proxy test failed when HTTP:// is given in uppercase. Thanks
    Tobias Olsson (LP: #1072580).
  * Show licence message when fonts actually installed (closes: #672259).

Sorry I can't work on this merge since I lack packaging skills.

Ubuntu changelog:

msttcorefonts (3.4+nmu1ubuntu2) utopic; urgency=medium

  * update-ms-fonts: Skip race between update-notifier and update-ms-fonts
    trying to delete the same files from the same locations (LP: #1354709)

msttcorefonts (3.4+nmu1ubuntu1) raring; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
    - Ubuntu preinst and postrm scripts have deltas.
    - debian/control: Add Multi-Arch: foreign.
    - Use maintscript support in dh_installdeb rather than writing out
      dpkg-maintscript-helper commands by hand. We now simply Pre-Depend on a new enough version of dpkg rather than using 'dpkg-maintscript-helper
      supports' guards, leading to more predictable behaviour on upgrades.
    - Source the debconf confmodule before doing anything else in the preinst.
    - Move #DEBHELPER# substitution before preinst code that might exit.
    - Migrate to use an update-notifier hook, so that package data can be
      handled asynchronously and not cause install failures on network
      problems.
    - Add missing pre-depends for use of debconf in preinst.
    - Convert to dh(1).

  * Use maintscript support in dh_installdeb rather than writing out
    dpkg-maintscript-helper commands by hand. We now simply Pre-Depend on a
    new enough version of dpkg rather than using 'dpkg-maintscript-helper
    supports' guards, leading to more predictable behaviour on upgrades.
    Thanks Colin Watson (closes: #659724).
  * Proxy test failed when HTTP:// is given in uppercase. Thanks
    Tobias Olsson (LP: #1072580).

Could you summarize the changes and why a ffe would be wanted? see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess for details. Unsubscribing sponsors also since there is no work to sponsor there (it needs somebody to do the merge and add the patch to the bug)
