[Bug 1371783] Re: package ttf-mscorefonts-installer 3.4+nmu1ubuntu2 (utopic) fails to install/upgrade

[Linus]

This bug persists in 15.04 and it's not just cosmetic since it does not
download the fonts. The bug should not be marked as invalid unless the
reason is that a new bug has to be filed with the word (vivid) in the
title.

Title:
  package ttf-mscorefonts-installer 3.4+nmu1ubuntu2 (utopic) fails to
  install/upgrade

Status in msttcorefonts package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I've been trying to upgrade/update 'ttf-mscorefonts-installer' for the
  past week, but the install/upgrade fails with  a 'andale32.exe Hash
  Sum mismatch" error:

  I expect it to complete the install/upgrade, but it constantly chokes
  on 'andale32.exe', and generates a notification after each boot.
