Download Error: Invalid header name 'X-Apple-Tz' #78

This is the same issue as #72

I thought I would report this again anyway as I am running the latest Ubuntu (16.04) and the latest version of tunesviewer available in apt and the software center is 1.4.99.2-1.1. The last suggestion from issue #72 is to download the latest .deb file from sourceforge which does indeed fix this issue.

However, when running the .deb file from GIU (double clicking) the software center is launched which installs the older 1.4.99 version despite the .deb file being labelled as 1.5.4. A user has to use

sudo dpkg -i tunesviewer_1.5.4.deb

from the terminal to overcome this. This may be an issue with the software center, but I thought I would highlight this issue anyway as it may be confusing for people not adapt using the console.

Yeah, apparently 16.04 shipped with a bug where you can't double-click install .deb files: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/04/ubuntu-16-04-deb-software-install-error

It could be worse, it could be iOS ;)
