If you try to install the package, the download does not succeed because wget finds an index.html instead of the font executable (http://support.wolfram.com/mathematica/systems/windows/general/files/MathFonts_TrueType_41.exe). The popup synaptic returns says: E: ttf-mathematica4.1: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Whatsmore, since the installation fails, you are not able to remove the package, nor to reinstall it (unless the link gets fixed/changed to another one), nor to definitely avoid synaptic reminding you have the failing package. + Probably, the Mathematica fonts should now be downloaded - according to + http://support.wolfram.com/technotes/latestfonts.en.html - from the + following url: + http://support.wolfram.com/technotes/MathematicaV7FontsLinux.tar.gz + ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 8.10 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: ttf-mathematica4.1 4 PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: ttf-mathematica4.1 Uname: Linux 2.6.27-11-generic i686
