[Bug 891101] [NEW] Unable to select a program like default app for deb packages

 

Public bug reported:

I don't like the "Ubuntu Software Center" and I prefer use Synaptic/aptitude to remote packages and gdebi to open the local deb packages.
I want select gdebi like default app to deb packages but I can't.
I attach one screenshot with the contextual menu of a deb package. In it you can see that gdebi is showed and selectable but it isn't the default app.
In another screenshot you can see that gdebi isn't in the list of apps available for deb packages.
