Let me do a quick Google search... don't recall it was an article from Ubuntu wiki but this can be better than nothing: *** https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto#Updating_the_Package_List "Updating the Package List Click Reload or press Ctrl + R to make Synaptic aware of the latest updates and any changes to the list of repositories. Although this is done automatically when you open Synaptic it can be a good idea to update the database from time to time while running Synaptic. (...)" *** However, I don't know if this still remains true for the current Debian version of Synaptic.
