Thanks for pointing me at that. Looking at the bug report and related forum discussions I agree my upgrade to 9.10 has two separate issues - this ttf-mscorefonts one and the IPv6 DNS lookups. Naively I had assumed I had just one set of related problems - it is worse than I thought... sigh! -- package ttf-mscorefonts-installer 2.6 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/431217 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
