I've found the problem with the packages that fail to install. Both Wine and Chrome debs contain a "data.tar.lzma", but GDebi only checks for gz and bz2 file extensions. I don't know anything about deb packages, so maybe the packages don't conform to the specification, but GDebi should be able to open these packages anyway.

How to fix:

In the file
/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/debian_bundle/debfile.py

change on line 29
PART_EXTS = ['gz', 'bz2'] # possible extensions
to
PART_EXTS = ['gz', 'bz2', 'lzma'] # possible extensions
