Let me know if this is a different bug and I will file another report, but I think that it's the same.
I open a .deb with gdebi-gtk. The GUI opens. I click "Install" and gdebi simply closes. If I open a terminal and type gdebi-gtk path/to/deb.deb it opens the deb in the GUI and when I hit install, it actually installs. The method of adding gksu above doesn't work for me and most others because gksu is deprecated and not installed in Ubuntu anymore by default. It's a good workaround for those who can use it but it still need fixing. I'm using gdebi 0.9.5.7+nmu2 and Xubuntu 18.04 (upgraded from 17.10 if that makes any difference). -- 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/1760910 Title: Gdebi crash in Ubuntu Studio 18.04 Status in gdebi package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Gdebi opens normal, but when you click install package, it closes.
