I can confirm that this issue exists on an updated focal vm. In order to
trigger the problem, you need to go click the download chrome button in
firefox. Then you get a firefox pop up window that will ask you if you
want to Open With Software Install or save the file.
If you save the file, then
Sure thing! The default option when downloading a file is to "Open With"
that is what 3a is about as Software Install is the default "Open With"
option. A coworker thought on this issue is that the file is saved in
/tmp until it is opened and the snap-store can't access outside of the
home
Aaron, can you please clarify something for me.. I downloaded the google
chrome deb and double clicking on it opens it in the Software Install
application and I can install it just fine. And you said this would
happen. But how did you reproduce the error exactly? Step 3a is
ambiguous to me. Can
I can confirm that this hasn't been fixed on either 20.04 LTS or 21.04
with the latest updates applied and a reboot into the latest kernel.
Steps to reproduce using GNOME Boxes and the Chrome deb file from
Google:
0. Install GNOME Boxes using apt
1. Setup VM with either OS using the defaults (no
Correction: The above repro steps were done on Debian 10. They work the
same in Ubuntu 20.04, with the exception that in Ubuntu the .deb opens
in the Software app, unlike in Debian which opens it in the Archive
Explorer (which is arguably a saner default).

I am thinking is some race condition here. It works reliably for me on
a fresh install of focal in a VM but on my desktop which has lots of
history and lots of packages installed I see the "not supported" error
sometimes.
I'll re-open the issue and we'll continue to work on it.
