[Bug 1693463] Re: Can't install Debian packages for programs not in the Ubuntu repositories
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1672424 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1672424 > I haven't installed the update there to see if that resolves this issue because I'm not sure people should be running into this in the first place? While we try to fix all bugs before release, that is not always possible and this bug was mentioned in the Ubuntu 17.04 Release Notes [1]. If you do not install the update to fix this bug and restart your computer, then you will still be affected by this bug. Therefore, I am closing this bug since it's already been fixed. If it still does not work after installing all updates and restarting your computer, please file a new bug with details of what is not working. Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and help make Ubuntu better.

Sam Korson who also got this bug said ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- software/+bug/1672424/comments/56 ): 'my issue seems to have been resolved now either way; I just noticed that there were some "system updates" available from inside Software and I installed those and rebooted. I can now install .deb files without problems. Great!' But most users don't go to that part of Ubuntu Software regularly? Why do these need to be installed? I don't understand why there's two different graphical update mangers in the first place... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1693463 Title: Can't install Debian packages for programs not in the Ubuntu repositories To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1693463/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1693463] Re: Can't install Debian packages for programs not in the Ubuntu repositories
I copied the layout from bug 1672424 but edited it accordingly. Also, it doesn't happen now, but at first when trying to install an app by launching gnome-software by loading the Deb graphically (e.g. clicking on it in Firefox's download list), I was able to click the Install button in Ubuntu Software (gnome-software; the 'Sorry, this does not work' popup didn't load in this case), but aside from pressing inwards like you'd expect a button to appear when you click on it, there was no graphical response and the app didn't install. Now I just get the popup appear when launching Ubuntu Software graphically from a Deb too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1693463 Title: Can't install Debian packages for programs not in the Ubuntu repositories To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1693463/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
