[Bug 869685] Re: Always fails to install 3rd party debs
Try this: ar t /home/rogerb/Downloads/google-musicmanager-beta_current_amd64.deb Is the data.tar inside lzma compressed? If yes then this is a dupe of 868188. You can work around it in one of three ways 1. Installing with dpkg 2. Installing either the lzma or xz-lzma packages as they provide /usr/bin/lmza 3. setting up your own symlink such that /usr/bin/lmza points to /usr/bin/xz Remember to mark this as a duplicate if it is your issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869685 Title: Always fails to install 3rd party debs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/869685/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

That isn't the file in question - Osmos is something I installed while the system was running natty a few months ago. I had to do a fresh install of oneiric but kept my home directory so you are seeing older detritus. The file in question from this error message is Google Music Manager but it looks like you have to be part of their beta program. However this also happened with Chrome and Skype deb packages downloaded from their respective web sites. dpkg -i was quite happy to open and install the packages so their was nothing inherently wrong with them, Chances are that was is happening is software centre getting upset with the packages for some reason like the one given above. But instead of saying that in the user display you just get Internal Error - couldn't open filename. ** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869685 Title: Always fails to install 3rd party debs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/869685/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
