16.04 I have the same issue, in fact even with ARCH AUR its the same issue. Sourceforge has been in some serious server troubles.

[Bug 1371783] Re: package ttf-mscorefonts-installer 3.4+nmu1ubuntu2 (utopic) fails to install/upgrade
The problem with #45 (and #47, and all the other proposed solutions) is SourceForge, and nothing else. If SourceForge tries to direct you to a nonexistent mirror, all solutions fail. If you try to download from SourceForge and you get an advertising page instead of the file you want, all the automated solutions fail. The solution in #33 / #34 is fully automated but fails in the case where SourceForge misbehaves. As james-pic notes in #42 and I have noted, the only solution that will always work requires that someone create a non-SourceForge repo for the fonts. (And no, it makes no difference whatsoever which link you use. http://sourceforge.net/projects/corefonts/files/the%20fonts/final/ and http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/ point to the same location.) Since james-pic has created such a non-SF repo (thanks!), his solution should always work. It would be nice to see Ubuntu incorporate it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1371783 Title: package ttf-mscorefonts-installer 3.4+nmu1ubuntu2 (utopic) fails to install/upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/msttcorefonts/+bug/1371783/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Also affects 16.04 #45 no more solution (at least, to me) - same failure as installing directly from Ubuntu repo. Workaround: 1) Download .exe from sourceforge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/corefonts/files/the%20fonts/final/) 2) Purge & reinstall ttf-mscorefonts-installer (let it fail) 3) dpkg-reconfigure ttf-mscorefonts-installer 4) The command line will prompt for an optional path where the fonts have already been downloaded - if any.

Looks like the failure is because some of the Sourceforge mirrors are flaky, and when a mirror flakes out, SourceForge redirects clients to a HTML page with Javascript that makes it try again - which is of course no good for headless downloads. I stuck a copy of the files onto GitHub pages, and threw together a PPA with a modified version of the package, that downloads from GitHub instead (https://code.launchpad.net/~james- pic/+archive/ubuntu/msttcorefonts).

The workaround is to go to: /var/lib/update-notifier/package-data-downloads/partial delete all files and try installing the fonts again. If you're luck and you get all of them downloaded right, they will install. If not, delete the partial files again and try installing the fonts until you succeed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1371783 Title: package ttf-mscorefonts-installer 3.4+nmu1ubuntu2 (utopic) fails to install/upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/msttcorefonts/+bug/1371783/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I think the SourceForge servers are too smart for their own good. When I did an HTTP 0.9 request (no protocol specified in the GET), I got an HTML page saying the page didn't exist. When I did an HTTP 1.1 request (below) I got a 'bad request' error. When I fetched it with wget I got multiple redirects which eventually led to downloading the file. $ telnet download.sourceforge.net 80 Trying 216.34.181.59... Connected to downloads.sourceforge.net.

Here's a work-around until the package is fixed: TMP=`mktemp -d` cd $TMP grep Url: /usr/share/package-data-downloads/ttf-mscorefonts-installer | awk '{print $2}' | xargs -n 1 wget sudo /usr/lib/msttcorefonts/update-ms-fonts $TMP/* cd - rm -rf $TMP Note that this does skip the hash sum check, but they're just fonts, It's not like someone's going to hijack the download.sourceforge.net DNS and use it to distribute invalid files. The files aren't being executed: the update-ms-fonts script uses cabextract to pull the TTF files out of each exe.
