I also got this error. After changing the permission of the partial
folder, I still cannot download the mscorefonts. Error message below:
```
Failure to download extra data files
The following packages requested additional data downloads after package
installation, but the data could not be downloaded or could not be
processed.
ttf-mscorefonts-installer
The download will be attempted again later, or you can try the download again
now. Running this command requires an active Internet connection.
E: Failed to fetch http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/andale32.exe

I can download the font package from internet without any problem, but
not from terminal. BTW, I am actually using Linux kernel 4.6.0-rc5, if
it matters. Thanks.
