This also affects ubuntu raring 13.04 amd64 (i did a clean install). Simple fix (since many past distributions) has been to do the following:
sudo su export http_proxy=http://username:password@proxyhost:port apt-get install --reinstall ttf-mscorefonts-installer I dont know why this still affects raring, as the status of this bug report is "fix released". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979477 Title: ttf-mscorefonts-installer installation popup and probable failure To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-notifier/+bug/979477/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
