When I do right-click on .deb package and open it with Gdebi-gtk, and try to install a package on 21.10 (also used to happen od 21.04) program closes.
I have downloaded 0.9.5.7+nmu6 and I think I have built it with dpkg- buildpackage - us -uc and still happens the same. 0.9.5.7+nmu6 works of gdebi-gtk is called from Terminal and .deb opened via File>Open , but it does not when on right-click and install in Thunar. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to gdebi in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1946499 Title: installation of deb-packages with gdebi-gtk shows "dpkg: error: unable to read filedescriptor flags for <package status and progress file descriptor>: Bad file descriptor" in gdebi terminal, package is not installed Status in Ubuntu MATE: Invalid Status in gdebi package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in vte2.91 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gdebi source package in Impish: Triaged Bug description: Steps to reproduce: 1.
