Package Failure

Asked by davidzaq1

Hello,

I am receiving a message that there is a package failure and I am not sure how to fix the problem.
Below is a copy of the failure.

Data files for some packages could not be downloaded

The following packages requested additional data downloads after package installation, but the data could not be downloaded or could not be processed.

ttf-mscorefonts-installer

This is a permanent failure that leaves these packages unusable on your system. You may need to fix your Internet connection, then remove and reinstall the packages to fix this problem.

Thank you,
David
