Sorry, I wrote this wrong
Url in debian package the url is:
https://freefr.dl.sourceforge.net/project/corefonts/the%20fonts/final/andale32.exe
-> OK
and ubuntu package the url is like this:
https://freefr.dl.sourceforge.net/project/corefonts/the
fonts/final/andale32.exe -> ERROR
result ubuntu
Err:1 http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/andale32.exe
404 Not Found
E: Impossible de récupérer https://freefr.dl.sourceforge.net/project/corefonts/the fonts/final/andale32.exe 404 Not Found
The difference is:
Debian package -> "....corefonts/the%20fonts/final...." OK
Ubuntu package -> "....corefonts/the fonts/final...." ERROR
"%20" no exist in ubuntu package and fail.

Title:
ttf-mscorefonts-installer 3.4+nmu1ubuntu2 fails to install core fonts
and should be updated to version 3.6 from Debian
Status in msttcorefonts package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
As noted in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/msttcorefonts/+bug/1371783/comments/45,
the current 3.4 version of ttf-mscorefonts-installer searches for the
font files in an incorrect network location. The consequence of this
is that the core fonts are never installed.
The Debian (upstream) version 3.6 of ttf-mscorefonts-installer
searches for the font files in the correct network location, and will
successfully install the core fonts.
This problem occurs with Ubuntu 16.04 as of July 2016. (And with
earlier versions, including current LTS.)
