Title:
  "Could not open ...deb. The package might be corrupted or you are not
  allowed to open the file. Check the permissions of the file" with
  latest 0.9.5

Status in “gdebi” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  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.
