[Ubuntu-BD] Could not install msttcorefonts

[Junayeed Ahnaf Nirjhor]

Hi,

I've heard recently sourceforge changed their server. But I believe Ubuntu  
(Or Mint) is trying to downloading from the old server. Which is why I  
could not install msttcorefonts package. I'm in a goal to heavily tweak  
wine in order to run many windows app in it. But I'm stuck at the  
beginning due to this obnoxious problem. Here's my command line output:


nirjhor at nirjhor-desktop ~ $ sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts
Reading package lists... Done

Note, selecting ttf-mscorefonts-installer instead of msttcorefonts
ttf-mscorefonts-installer is already the newest version.

These fonts were provided by Microsoft "in the interest of cross-

still available from third parties.

You are free to download these fonts and use them for your own use,
but you may not redistribute them in modified form, including changes
to the file name or packaging format.

Goes on and on. Last few lines looks like this


Errors were encountered while processing:
  ttf-mscorefonts-installer
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


Any workaround or troubleshoot will highly be appreciated. Thanks for your  
kind concern.
