Bug Description
In focal(20.04), gdebi 0.9.5.7+nmu3 has a problem.
In a terminal : sudo gdebi xxx.deb works (but no graphic mode)
In a terminal : sudo gdebi-gtk launch gdebi. Then, in the graphic UI, choose a .deb file ("file > open"), then clic on "install" and it's works.
BUT right-clic on the .deb, then "open with gdebi" => gdebi launch, et show the .deb file. But clic on "install" button, and gdebi close without any installation.
Solution / workaround :
change in gdebi.desktop the line
exec=gdebi-gtk %f
by :
exec=sh -c "gdebi-gtk %f"
And it's works perfectly.
Please, change the gdebi.desktop in gdebi.deb on focal.
