[Bug 1437764] Re: ttf-mscorefonts-installer doesn't work from Ubuntu Software Center because of EULA, breaks APT

I'm a newbie running 14.04 LTS and trying to get WINE for 3 different
times on three different machines with the same mscorefonts FAIL is very
frustrating for me!  After downloading and printing five other "answers"
that haven't worked, I finally get to a forum that says I need to TAB
and then ENTER to accept the EULA.  Now I have to sudo remove (dpkg?)
everything and try again...  <sigh/on>...  Please fix this for all the
other newbies out there, thanks!

Title:
  ttf-mscorefonts-installer doesn't work from Ubuntu Software Center
  because of EULA, breaks APT

  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hello, on Vivid 15.04 Beta 2, the package ttf-mscorefonts-installer
  installs from the Ubuntu Software Center but doesn't actually download
  and install the proprietary fonts. The reason appears to be that the
  package requires first agreeing to an EULA before downloading the
  fonts, and apparently the Software Center can't handle that. Please
  make the Software Center pop up a GUI to accept the EULA.
