When I insert the command: dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile /var/cache/apt/archives/ttf-liberation_1.04~beta2-2_all.deb | tar xvf - ./etc/defoma/hints/ttf-liberation.hints
I get:
dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile /var/cache/apt/archives/ttf-liberation_1.04~beta2-2_all.deb | tar xvf - ./etc/defoma/hints/ttf-liberation.hints
dpkg-deb: failed to read archive `/var/cache/apt/archives/ttf-liberation_1.04~beta2-2_all.deb': No such file or directory
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: ./etc/defoma/hints/ttf-liberation.hints: Not found in archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

I gained root access by entering sudo -i to resolve permission issues (if any) I also tried to install the fonts from synaptic but still no luck
again, thanks for your time!
