Nathaniel, addressing the change made between comments #54 & #55. This
bug is *not* relating to the functional failure of ttf-mscorefonts-
installer, but rather to the failure of Ubuntu to *update to version
3.6*. This package comes originally from Debian, where the current
version is 3.6. That version seems to work without problem, no matter
how ugly it may be in doing so. An update to the existing 3.6 code would
provide a clean solution to the problem which, as you will have noticed,
affects a very large number of people.

Unless someone is going actively to develop and test an updated package
which resolves the problems with version 3.4, then the change proposed
negates the point of this bug report, which is to adopt the Debian
solution. The solution in Debian mainstream (version 3.6) is already
tested and working. What is missing is for Ubuntu to adopt version 3.6.

(As a point of information, this bug also appears with 14.04.)
