This package operates outside of apt, and can e.g. also work when installed 
through just invoking dpkg. It's possible to use the http_proxy environment 
var, but environment vars are not always passed around in a reliable manner, 
especially when using sudo. That makes it tricky to devise a way that 
will "always work".

Try:

dpkg-reconfigure -plow msttcorefonts

The question is asked at lower priority.
