> @amrita,

> This implies that the script tries to use the proxy address
> http://:8080/ to download the fonts, which is obviously an erroneous
> value.
>
> If you're not using a proxy, you can set the proxy address to blank. Open a terminal and run:
> $ echo "set msttcorefonts/http_proxy " | sudo debconf-communicate
>
> If you're using a proxy to access the net then run the following command (change PROXY with your proxy address, for exemple http://192.168.0.1:3128/) :
> $ echo "set msttcorefonts/http_proxy PROXY" | sudo debconf-communicate
>
> Enter your password when you're asked for it.
> You can check if the value is correctly set with the debconf-show command
>
> Hope this helps.
