Bug Description

Binary package hint: msttcorefonts

If I install the ttf-mscorefonts-installer package, decline the license and then remove it, a README is left in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/.

How to reproduce:
1. apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer
2. Decline the license when prompted
3. apt-get remove ttf-mscorefonts-installer
4. ls /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/

Expected result:
There is no /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/ left on the system.

Actual result:
Dpkg does not remove /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/ because a README file is left there.
