Can I add to that, that when I start synaptic with "sudo synaptic" it doesn't freeze, or spam the terminal .. for me it only freezes if started with:- gksudo synaptic gksu synaptic synaptic-pkexec
Downgrading Synaptic to synaptic_0.75.12build1 from 12.10 also fixes the freezes -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1178024 Title: Synaptic locks up during use To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/1178024/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
