[Bug 1074952] [NEW] I have tried the tricks given in various forums but cannot get ttf-mscorefonts-installer to install on Kubuntu 12.04. As soon as it tries to download Arandale, it hangs up, then gives me error messages concerning this folder: /usr/lib/python2.7/urllib.py.

Public bug reported:

I had the same problem with 11.04.  I also couldn't download flash, but
got around that by following a suggestion from one of the forums.
