Public bug reported: Ubuntu 14.04 with gdebi 0.9.5 (updated today): gdebi-gtk can no longer open deb files after this update. When trying to open a file, this message is displayed: "Could not open ...deb. The package might be corrupted or you are not allowed to open the file. Check the permissions of the file".
I've tried it with quite a few deb files, which were working prior to the update to gdebi 0.9.5, all with the same result.
