retitle 493352 gdebi-gtk cannot install packages thanks I have reproduced this problem. The symptoms are that gdebi says on screen `failed to install [package].deb'. There is no further explanation and the terminal window remains blank. (In my first run, gdebi had correctly installed anki's dependencies but apparently failed even to attempt to install the package itself.
However, these problems do not affect the command line version - see transcript below. I would be quite unhappy to see the whole package (including command line version) removed from testing because my automated package tester autopkgtest depends on it.

To do this, it tracks how well you remember each fact, and uses that information to optimally schedule review times. . While Anki can be used for studying anything, it also ships with special features designed to make studying Japanese and English easier: integrated dictionary lookups, missing kanji reports, and more. .
