Hi Matthew, and thanks for your report. Could you please attach the
Ninja-IDE deb that you used? That was we can try to reproduce ourselves.
Many thanks!

Title:
Missing dependencies for deb fails silently
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I was installing the Ninja-IDE deb that I downloaded. Double clicking on it
opened up the software center.
I believe when installing a Deb before it made me install gdebi. I installed
it but used dpkg instead.
When I clicked install in the software center nothing seemed to happen. I
clicked a few times, nothing happen.
I went back to my old favourite dpkg and installed using the -i flag.
dpkg reported I was missing pyflakes and python-qt4. Once I did the
usual running around in circles you get with apt Ninja-IDE installed
fine.
I'm assuming here that software-center didn't install Ninja-IDE
because of the missing dependencies. It would be good to see if other
people can replicate with other debs and with other versions of
software-center.
