So if your internet connection doesn't work properly when downloading the fonts in postinst, you can also install the fonts manually and you don't even need an internet connection during the postinst of the Debian package. You do need to have an internet connection at one point where you download the corresponding files. Please go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/corefonts/files/the%20fonts/final/ and download the following files: andale32.exe arial32.exe arialb32.exe comic32.exe courie32.exe georgi32.exe impact32.exe times32.exe trebuc32.exe verdan32.exe webdin32.exe You can also do that from another computer where the download works and transfer them e.g. via USB stick. You should then put them in e.g. /usr/local/share/corefonts and then you can tell the ttf-mscorefonts-installer package where to find those fonts (as root, before installing ttf-mscorefonts-installer): echo "ttf-mscorefonts-installer msttcorefonts/dldir string /usr/local/share/corefonts" | debconf-set-selections (replace the directory by the one you chose) Then you can just install the ttf-mscorefonts-installer package and it will take the fonts from that directory instead of downloading them during postinst. If postinst of ttf-mscorefonts-installer already failed (like it did in your case), you can still do that debconf-set-selections line and just retry the installation of the package (e.g. via dpkg --configure -pending). Hope that helps. Christian
