[NBLUG/talk] Installing a new font on Ubuntu

[Steve Bursch]

On the Ubuntu (with Gnome) machine, in the Synaptic package manager, I set the "Universe" property for software sources.  Then, from a terminal command line, I ran the following command:

sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts

I received the these messages in response:

"Package msttcorefonts is not available but is referred to by another package.  
This may mean the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or 
is only available from another source
E:  package msttcorefonts has no installation candidate"

Does this mean I have to install the fonts manually?

Thanks...Steve
