Comment 7 for bug 299427

I found a solution to uninstall ttf-mathematica:

- create the folder /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-mathml

- create inside the 16 fonts: math1b__.ttf math2b__.ttf math3b__.ttf math4b__.ttf math1mb__.ttf math2mb__.ttf math3mb__.ttf math4mb__.ttf math1m__.ttf math2m__.ttf math3m__.ttf math4m__.ttf
math1__.ttf math2__.ttf math3__.ttf math4__.ttf
by copying a generic truetype font (es. ttf-liberation) and renaming it

- launch: sudo defoma-font register-all /etc/defoma/hints/ttf-mathematica4.1.hints

At this point you have registered the fonts and you can safely uninstall the package
