I have been receiving this error message for about 2 weeks. It says:
The following packages requested additional data downloads after

The data appears to be Microsoft brand fonds. I use Linux (Xubuntu
16.04). I run Libra-office for a program that might use these fonts.
I do not use MS brand fonts, although my spreadsheets come up with
Arial, which I must change to FreeSans.
When I "run this action now", it opens a terminal, asks for my root
password and appears to try to download files with a .exe file type.
Thoughts?
John
Try running the two commands in the last post of this thread:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/852302/failure-to-download-extra-data-files-ttf-mscorefonts-installer
Worked for me.
