[Bug 920189] [NEW] Debconf explains too late that declining cancelled a purchase installation

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Public bug reported:

debconf 1.5.40ubuntu1, Ubuntu 11.10

I'm not sure whether this is a problem with debconf, or with the
commercial drumpads package.

1. In Ubuntu Software Center, buy Drum Pads.
2. When the "Configuring ttf-mscorefonts-installer" Debconf prompt appears, click "Forward" without checking the checkbox.

What happens: The Debconf window displays an error message: "If you do
not agree to the 'TrueType core fonts for the Web EULA ' license terms
you cannot install the software. The installation of this package will
be canceled."

What should happen: That should have been explained before you had the
chance to click "Forward".

** Affects: debconf (Ubuntu)
