Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
How are you downloading the fonts? The microsoft fonts installer requires that you accept the microsoft EULA (end user license agreement) and the installer fails intentionally if the EULA was not accepted. My guess is you're not accepting the required EULA and thus failure to install is mandated by microsoft. It requires you to accept with the enter key (in most cases, why I asked how you are installing it) I have marked this incomplete, if you believe I'm in error, please return it to new and leave a comment marking why. I suspect you're not accepting the EULA and thus install cannot be complete according to license terms. ** Changed in: msttcorefonts (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1840199 Title: fonts cannot be downloaded To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/msttcorefonts/+bug/1840199/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
