Ok, I may be doing something wrong or misunderstanding something and if
so please point it out to me but this fix doesn't seem to work for me.

I enabled oneiric-proposed via "Ubuntu Software Center→Edit→Software
Sources→Updates". Then I ran Update Manager, which found found an update
to Software Center (amongst other things). I then installed all updates.
After this was finished I was still unable to install an lzma compressed
deb and I notice that the lzma package is not installed.

P.S. Surely the best way to fix this would not be to add any more
dependencies to Software Center (which bloats the system) but rather to
have Software Center use xz to read lzma compressed data if lzma is not
available. This is what other utilities like tar and dpkg do, which
explains why people could work around this issue by installing via the
command line and did not need to install lzma to get this to work with
dpkg.
