SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use Fedora 40 Workstation. I downloaded the GNOME version and then installed KDE plasma, with no other KDE apps using sudo dnf install @kde-desktop-environment
2. Open the system settings app, then search for fonts, then select font management
3. click on get new fonts. select the font at the top right, then click install, The font doesn't install, the window says it has an unknown state and has a link to report the issue here. The window has a transparent dark gray square on the top left corner.

OBSERVED RESULT
The font "MS True Type Core Fonts by SeanParsons" is not installed.


EXPECTED RESULT
The font "MS True Type Core Fonts by SeanParsons" is installed successfully.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I can reproduce the issue.

If I resize the window, the layout gets fixed, and an error dialog appears warning me that "Cannot install 'MS True Type core fonts' because it points to a web page. Click here to finish the installation."

So ultimately the item on store.kde.org itself is broken, but the error message telling you this isn't legible. We can fix the legibility issue.
