Thank you for your quick work on this.  I am impressed, and I say that 
as a fellow software developer.

Given that you were able to reproduce the problem, I will not do the 
additional testing needed to gather more information (unless you ask me 
to do so).

When the fix becomes available to me from the repository, I will test 
it, and report back.

Title:
  Gdebi not installing required dependencies

Status in “gdebi” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in “gdebi” source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  SRU verification:
  1. use trusty
  2. run "apt-get download 4g8"
  3. run "gdebi-gtk ./4g8*.deb"
  4. click on "install" in the gdebi UI
  5. verify that the package 4g8 fails to install because the libnet1 dependency is not installed
  6. install gdebi from trusty-proposed
  7. repeat steps 3,4 and verify that the libnet1 dependency is installed this time.

  
  Gdebi is not installing required dependencies before installing the desired package.
  You need to run "sudo apt-get install -f" to fix the problem.
  The usual behaviour is to install the dependencies as part of the desired package installation.
