Same here (karmic beta)

gdebi-gtk says:
dpkg: unable to read filedescriptor flags for <package status and progress file descriptor>: Bad file descriptor
Same when executed from firefox, nautilus or terminal.

Nevertheless, I still can istall package with sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb

Absolutely same here, gdebi fails to install any package (while its dependencies are installed normally), but using dpkg -i installation succeeds.

Changed in gdebi (Ubuntu):
