  package ttf-mscorefonts-installer 3.0 failed to install/upgrade

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  I upgraded my Desktop ubuntu from jaunty to karmic.
  During the upgrade I got the message "could not install ttf-mscorefonts-installer".
  I proceeded.
  At the end of the installation step (before cleaning step), I got again an error message about this ttf-mscorefonts-installer.
  Apport proposed to send informations to you.
  I said yes.
  Started collecting info ... but didn't finish.
  I pressed cancel (to apport)
  After a while I got a message saying that the upgrade was broken, and to try a   dpkg --configure -a  .
  The upgrade stopped.
  I attache the /var/log/dist-upgrades/    logs.

  I tried dpkg --configure -a, but it could not connect to the internet. So probably during the upgrade the connection to internet was lost (even if the NetworkManager Applet say there was one active connection).
  So after rebooting I could connect to the internet and execute successfully  dpkg --configure -a, which installed the fonts.

  Is it  possible to resume the upgrade to finish it (End of
  Installation step + Cleaning step) ?
