This block from ceph3us got me past the initial problem
"sudo adduser --force-badname --system --home /nonexistent --no-create-home
--quiet _apt || true
sudo chown _apt /var/lib/update-notifier/package-data-downloads/partial/"
However, now it won't download the fonts, I am getting connection
refused, and 404 errors. I am sure it doesn't help that the url has a
space in it "the fonts" this should really be URL encoded
Failed to fetch
