Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: dpkg

When installing any package from http://www.getdeb.net or 
http://xzcallaway.synthasite.com I expect the package to install so that I can 
play it.  Instead the Package Installer stops just short of installing it, and 
prints the following message:
"Failed to install package"
Next the terminal opens and it states:
"dpkg: unable to read file descriptor flags for <package status and progress 
file descriptor>:  bad file descriptor."
