Title:
GNOME Software does not install third-party .deb packages
Status in GNOME Software:
Fix Released
Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in gnome-software source package in Xenial:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Impact
installing local debs from nautilus doesn't work
Test case
download a deb and double click on it nautilus
Regression potential
the changes are restoring a feature that was working, should regression other
parts of the code
-----------------
Unlike previous versions of Ubuntu Unity, I'm unable to install the
google-talk-plugin in Ubuntu 16.04, where it (the deb) can be downloaded here:
https://www.google.com/tools/dlpage/hangoutplugin
After downloading, I open the deb file from Firefox and it launches
the gnome-software package (used in Unity now).
The first time I click the install button in gnome-software, I notice
a strange repositioning of the layout, but nothing else happens.
Clicking the install button a second time puts a
question-mark-progress-launcher onto the launcher (task) bar, but it never
progresses:

So far, no one has offered a workaround:
