Ubuntu 17.04 : Ubuntu Cannot install fonts-lato package ( needed by ruby )

[olikaf]

All is in the title...
I tried to install ruby, but I have an infinite loop on the fonts-lato package.
Same issue if I try to install fonts-lato alone.

My first thought would be to try a different mirror ...

If you tried that ... possible to install the package directly?


$ wget http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/f/fonts-lato/fonts-lato_2.0-1_all.deb

$ sudo dpkg -i /path/to/file.deb
$ sudo apt-get install -f
