[Fred DC]

Package: gdebi
Version: 0.9.4
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,


Crashes when trying to read the deb-file

Did the following from the commandline:
   gdebi-gtk hardinfo_0.5.1-1.2+b1_i386.deb
   
and the result was:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/gdebi-gtk", line 79, in <module>
    app = GDebiGtk(datadir=data,options=options,file=afile)
  File "/usr/share/gdebi/GDebi/GDebiGtk.py", line 151, in __init__
    self.open(file)
  File "/usr/share/gdebi/GDebi/GDebiGtk.py", line 330, in open
    if not self._deb.check():
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/apt/debfile.py", line 518, in check
    if not self.check_breaks_existing_packages():
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/apt/debfile.py", line 447, in check_breaks_existing_packages
    self._cache.op_progress.done()
AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'op_progress'

and crash!!!
