retitle 493352 gdebi-gtk cannot install packages
thanks

I have reproduced this problem.  The symptoms are that gdebi says on
screen `failed to install [package].deb'.  There is no further
explanation and the terminal window remains blank.  (In my first run,
gdebi had correctly installed anki's dependencies but apparently
failed even to attempt to install the package itself.

However, these problems do not affect the command line version - see
transcript below.  I would be quite unhappy to see the whole package
(including command line version) removed from testing because my
automated package tester autopkgtest depends on it.

Ian.

flashcard learning program with special support for Japanese
 Anki is a program designed to help you remember facts (such as words and
 phrases in a foreign language) as easily, quickly and efficiently as possible.
 To do this, it tracks how well you remember each fact, and uses that
 information to optimally schedule review times.
 .
 While Anki can be used for studying anything, it also ships with special
 features designed to make studying Japanese and English easier: integrated
 dictionary lookups, missing kanji reports, and more.
 .
 Besides text, it supports sounds, images and rendering TeX snippets in the
 cards.  Sample card decks are included for a subset of the Japanese Language
 Proficiency Test vocabulary and for some Russian vocabulary.
