And I just installed Unity (Unity) 15.10 with the daily ISO, and this bug remains. During installation of 
ttf-mscorefonts-installer or ubuntu-restricted-extras the whole software center freezes and the package database is left in a broken state.

Seriously guys, this bug can not be allowed to remain. It's a huge shame
for Ubuntu that reflects very poorly on the quality of the whole distro.

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

Status in Ubuntu Software Center:
  New
Status in ubuntu-mate:
  Incomplete
Status in msttcorefonts package in Ubuntu:
  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.
