Title:
  ttf-mscorefonts-installer 3.4+nmu1ubuntu2 fails to install core fonts
  and should be updated to version 3.6 from Debian

Status in msttcorefonts package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  As noted in
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/msttcorefonts/+bug/1371783/comments/45,
  the current 3.4 version of ttf-mscorefonts-installer searches for the
  font files in an incorrect network location. The consequence of this
  is that the core fonts are never installed.

  The Debian (upstream) version 3.6 of ttf-mscorefonts-installer
  searches for the font files in the correct network location, and will
  successfully install the core fonts.

  This problem occurs with Ubuntu 16.04 as of July 2016. (And with
  earlier versions, including current LTS.)
