This bug addresses the specific question of the relocated source files, but nothing else.
Bugs https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/msttcorefonts/+bug/1371783/ and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/msttcorefonts/+bug/1563840 would seem to be duplicates.
Most importantly, neither of those bugs actually report the failure to install the font files due to their change of location on Sourceforge.
