Package: synaptic Version: 0.57.5.1 Severity: grave I'm tracking Etch. My last regular upgrade obtained version 0.57.5.1 of synaptic. I can no longer run the package at all as it segfaults on startup. This occurs whether run from gnome, from a terminal window as root, or via gksu. Based on one of the other bug reports here is the output of gksu id:
