It was an overflow (using an int to try and fit the value). This was
fixed upstream in 3.22.

Title:
  gnome-software displays wildly inaccurate estimate of package size
  when a certain deb file is double-clicked in nautilus

Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-software source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  For .debs with a large Installed-Size GNOME Software shows the incorrect value. This is due to an integer overflow.

  [Test Case]
  1. Launch the attached test-deb_1_all.deb file in GNOME Software
  2. Check the Size field.

  Expected result:
  Size is set to 3.9GB

  Observed result:
  Size is set to 18.4EB

  [Regression Potential]
  Took upstream commit that fixed this by using a 64 bit number to calculate size. Unlikely to cause further issues.
