Opening the link in a browser works, downloads the font, but from a different mirror site, https://vorboss.dl.sourceforge.net/project/corefonts/the%20fonts/final/andale32.exe .
I think I got the error message while connected to several networks, I don't think the restriction is on my side. Maybe some mirrors of sourceforge.net, which I don't know how they get chosen, do not work? Here another try, giving me a different result: Processing triggers for update-notifier-common (3.192.1.7) ... ttf-mscorefonts-installer: processing... ttf-mscorefonts-installer: downloading http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/andale32.exe Get:1 http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/andale32.exe [198 kB] Fetched 198 kB in 3s (72,3 kB/s) ttf-mscorefonts-installer: downloading http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/arial32.exe Get:1 http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/arial32.exe [554 kB] Fetched 554 kB in 2s (244 kB/s) ttf-mscorefonts-installer: downloading http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/arialb32.exe Err:1 http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/arialb32.exe Redirection from https to 'http://downloads.sourceforge.net/mirrorproblem?failedmirror=netix.dl.sourceforge.net' is forbidden [IP: 87.121.121.2 443] E: Failed to fetch https://netix.dl.sourceforge.net/project/corefonts/the fonts/final/arialb32.exe Redirection from https to 'http://downloads.sourceforge.net/mirrorproblem?failedmirror=netix.dl.sourceforge.net' is forbidden [IP: 87.121.121.2 443] E: Download Failed Setting up ttf-mscorefonts-installer (3.6ubuntu2) ...
