Bug Description
Binary package hint: ttf-mathematica4.1
In synaptic, I chose to install this package, and the system crash detector popped up and asked me to report the installation failure. I don't know exactly if it is the same error that the other user reported about dpkg application or not. The only detail I can get out of synaptic is
