[Bug 670629] Re: EULA not shown for Microsoft Fonts

[Geoffrey Thomas]

I filed the following bugs about the fontconfig issue:
http://bugs.debian.org/636173
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/819097

I'm attaching a debdiff that creates
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts in the postinst
(unconditionally) instead of using debian/dirs for this. I've tested
that this package installs fine whether or not I accept the license.

This change seems safe enough to go into natty-updates, but getting it
into oneiric would be a good start.

  When installing Ubuntu-Restricted-Extras, the user never has a chance
