Title:
  Cannot install common third-party debs due to "bad quality" error

Status in Lintian:
  New
Status in aptdaemon package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When I try to install the official deb packages for Google Chrome or
  Atom, I get an error in the Software Center saying the package is of
  bad quality and should not be installed. For example, the details
  given for Atom read:

  "Lintian check results for /home/christopher/Downloads/atom-amd64.deb:
  Unknown tag "binary-file-compressed-with-upx" in profile "ubuntu/aptdaemon" at /usr/bin/lintian line 1661."

  It complains about binary-file-compressed-with-upx in the details for
  the Chrome package, too.

  Packages known to be affected:
  * Google Chrome
  * Atom
  * Skype
  * audio-recorder
