Title:
  msttcorefonts EULA window was behind update-manager window, no window
  manager at that moment

Status in “msttcorefonts” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  I was updating from 10.10 to 11.04 and whilst updating was browsing
  the internet. The update-manager didn't proceed for quite some time,
  then i discovered that there was a window behind the update manager
  that asked me to accept the EULA for mttcorefonts. I could not switch
  to this window, for there was no active window-manager at that moment.
  I.e. No titlebar above the window to activate the window in which i
  had to accept the EULA. I managed to proceed by clicking the checkbox
  and guessing i had to press "tab" twice to accept the EULA. Personally
  i think the update-manager should proceed even if the EULA is not
  accepted yet. Maybe the EULA can be shown after the distribution is
  upgraded? Sometimes other questions are asked to when upgrading and
  this can be annoying if the computer is left unattended, which most
  people do (i may hope). Is it not possible to delay the installation
  of these packages? Upon reboot the user is in front of the pc and can
  answer these questions.
