Why is kpackage present and gdebi missing then? I think this issue has to do with nautilus, because the problem is in the options offered to open a remote file. For example, I am now investigating the problem a bit further, I opened my home both via ssh://localhost and via /home/vincenzo. I have a pdf file in it. If I right click on local, I see that the default application proposed is acroread (because of a yet- to-report evince bug :-)), while if I right click on remote, the default is "document viewer", i.e. evince, which was my previous default, and acroread is not present at all in the list. Moreover, kpdf is present in the remote list so it is not a problem of gnome-vfs-supporting applications. By going deeper, I see that nautilus calls any program you want, with ssh://.... in front of it, so it should at least offer the same options, and let the same, and not different programs, die in front of users with various application-dependent funny messages :)
