[Bug 920189] Re: Debconf explains too late that declining cancelled a purchase installation

[Steve Langasek]

This doesn't actually cancel the installation of the purchased software,
it only cancels the installation of the msttcorefonts fonts.  Agree that
this is a bug, though.

Title:
  Debconf explains too late that declining cancelled a purchase
  installation

Status in “msttcorefonts” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  debconf 1.5.40ubuntu1, Ubuntu 11.10

  I'm not sure whether this is a problem with debconf, or with the
  commercial drumpads package.

  1. In Ubuntu Software Center, buy Drum Pads.
  2. When the "Configuring ttf-mscorefonts-installer" Debconf prompt appears, click "Forward" without checking the checkbox.

  What happens: The Debconf window displays an error message: "If you do
  not agree to the 'TrueType core fonts for the Web EULA ' license terms
  you cannot install the software. The installation of this package will
  be canceled."

  What should happen: That should have been explained before you had the
  chance to click "Forward".
