Sort of related, in the meantime dolphin_oracle and I have come up with right-click context actions in Dolphin and Thunar to install one or more .deb files at a time with "apt install". Advantages over gdebi is that you can install multiple debs at once, some of which depend on others in that batch, such as a test upgrade of vlc-3.0 I just built where I did ten at once. It also allows downgrades, which gdebi refuses to do. The basic code could very probably be adapted to other file managers that allow scripted custom actions...goodbye gdebi and your oddball problems "the mpv package no longer provides mpv" :roll:
