Re: Trouble installing

Sorry, you have no main jessie repositories.

I should have seen that immediately but I'm tired...

Re: Trouble installing

I don't see any "main" Jessie repository in that list, where almost all the Debian packages live, including gdebi. 

Is it possible that it was edited into jessie-backports?

The main repo is the first one in the example list in the wiki:  https://wiki.debian.org/SourcesList

(beaten by HOAS by 5 seconds! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )

Re: Trouble installing

Use:

sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list <<<"deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie main contrib non-free" && sudo apt update && sudo apt install gdebi
