This is a combination of bugs (preferences->network proxy not setting
the apt proxy, network failure on font file download causing a cascading
package configuration error that breaks the installation) that are all
fixed for the upcoming 12.04 release.

Title:
Wine can't install - attempts to download font files during
'Installation' phase
Status in “msttcorefonts” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: wine1.2
Running Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS, using Synaptic, I attempted to install the package Wine 1.2.
My internet connection is via a non-transparent proxy. In Preferences -> Network Proxy, I checked 'Apply System-wide', and Synaptic correctly used the proxy during the 'Downloading Files' phase of the process.
But, >AFTER< the download phase, during 'Applying Changes', for some reason Synaptic started trying to download arial32.exe and other files from Sourceforge, as I could see when using the Details tab to view progress in a terminal window. Here, there was no attempt to use the proxy, and every download failed. For each of the 12 files, the system tried about 10 - 15 mirror sites.
1. Why not download these files during the Download Files phase?
2. If this must be done during Applying Changes, consult the system-wide proxy settings?
