http://archive.debian-maintainers.org/unofficial/packages/microsoft-corefonts/ https://launchpad.net/~ivan1986/+archive/ppa/+packages It seems font license remains the same, I'm not sure if this license allows to distribute the fonts not only in original compressed cab archive (.exe) form, but also in other forms, like tar and deb packages - look at license file in ttf-microsoft-corefonts package above... -- EULA not shown for Microsoft Fonts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/670629 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
