For me it didn't work with the Ubuntu Software center as this surpresses some feedback from the Installer.
So it worked for me from the command line with simply:

   sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer

Then You need to conform the ms-ugly EULA, but you will have Arial etc
after that :)

Title:
  package ttf-mscorefonts-installer fails to install/upgrade, left in a
  half configured state

Status in msttcorefonts package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  There are many bugs which are very similar, although the exact details
  of version and error message might change, in the end they all boil
  down to ttf-mscorefonts-installer being in a broken state from which
  it's hard to recover.

  ttf-mscorefonts-installer needs to be made more reliable so that a
  failure to accept the license doesn't cause a very-hard-to-recover-
  from situation.
