can confirm this on a fresh oneiric release on both 64-bit and 32-bit, no encrypted homedir. Freshly install the OS, download google chrome stable and try to double click on it; as reported above, software centre opens and shows that message and no offered actions to resolve the situation.
I managed to get it installed through a lot of messing about with synaptic. (next and last machine to install, i try the dpkg -i <debfile> ; apt-get -f install method above.) Clearly software center should be able to do this and resolve the dependencies. To reproduce: Freshly install oneiric desktop; try to install google chrome by downloading and opening the debfile from google. seems completely repeatable. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/868188 Title: Software Center cannot open external .deb file google-chrome-stable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/868188/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
