I confirm this problem after fresh 7.04 (Feisty) install from alternate CD. The workaround by PaulFr posted by yct worked fine - thanks. As I'm not the linux wizz, could someone enlighten me what exactly this workaround does? I think I understand the command, but miss the sense - why it helps?

Hi, this page hits no.1 when searching for this bug, so I'll copy a
(better) workaround here:
touch /tmp/current_time
sudo find /usr/share/fonts /usr/share/X11/fonts /var/lib/defoma/fontconfig.d
~/.fonts ~/.fontconfig /usr/local/share/fonts -newer /tmp/current_time -exec

[Bug 136769] Re: Package ttf-opensymbol fails to update through update manager on default 7.04 install
I was installing updates after a fresh install of ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy when I came across this issue. As suggested by others, reinstalling ttf-opensymbol didn't work for me. There were still all those openoffice and python uno errors. What YCT said worked wonders. There were some minor errors like some of the directories in the command line were not found. But apart from that, everything went well after that, there were no more errors whenever I added or removed applications.

Brian, Are these virtual machine images based on a GUI install or an alternative install? I have only attempted to install via the alternative CD, as the GUI CD fails to install using my Dell 1520.

Ok. The ubuntu-restricted-extras has msttcorefonts has a dependancy and its that package which when installed resolves the issue. I'm going to try chaging this bug's "Affects" + "Importance" to try and get someone to look at it since it wil effect all who do an install of Ubuntu and then try to get updates straightaway. -- Package ttf-opensymbol fails to update through update manager on default 7.04 install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/136769 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 136769] Re: Package ttf-opensymbol fails to update through update manager on default 7.04 install
I can confirm this behaviour. I also did a recent install of Ubuntu from an alternative 7.04 cd and upon doing updates after booting into Ubuntu, found ttf-opensymbol failing to install and blocking the other packages. It seems that the fc-cache utility was complaining about not being able to write to the cache directories. I haven't tried the suggested work around but will do so tonight. Need to confirm if this is specific to the alternative cd install only or is the same for all the standard install methods since a lot of people could be affected by this. -- Package ttf-opensymbol fails to update through update manager on default 7.04 install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/136769 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
