Public bug reported:

In focal(20.04), gdebi 0.9.5.7+nmu3 has a problem.

In a terminal : sudo gdebi xxx.deb works (but no graphic mode)

In a terminal :  sudo gdebi-gtk launch gdebi. Then, in the graphic UI,
choose a .deb file ("file > open"), then clic on "install" and it's
works.

BUT right-clic on the .deb, then "open with gdebi" => gdebi launch, et
show the .deb file. But clic on "install" button, and gdebi close
without any installation.


Solution / workaround :  

change in gdebi.desktop the line

 exec=gdebi-gtk %f

     by :

 exec=sh -c "gdebi-gtk %f"

And it's works perfectly.

Please, change the gdebi.desktop in gdebi.deb on focal.
