hi,

ubuntu : 9.04, i686
firefox 3.0.10

When i click on a .deb hyperlink in a html page running under firefox, firefox ask me for opening the deb file whith gdebi, but just after it reports an error 
"<deb file name> n' pas pu être ouvert car l'application auxiliaire associée n'existe pas. Changez cette association dans vos préférences" (french localization)
rough translation : "can not open  file <deb file name> because associated program doesn't exist. Change your settings"

link : http://nautilussvn.googlecode.com/files/nautilussvn_0.12-1ubuntu2_all.deb
from : http://code.google.com/p/nautilussvn/wiki/Installation

gdebi is correctly installed on my system and works perfectly. i have already used gdebi from firefox in the past. 
these bug was already reported by other people but was normaly fixed with 9.04 (i just installed 9.04 over 8.10)

i deactivated all my firefox extension (ubufox, greaseMonkey, firedebug,
live http headers), but it doesn't change anything.

ubufox : 0.7-0ubuntu1
firefox : 3.0.10+nobinonly-0

best regards
