This happened to me on Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit after installing synaptic and then rebooting. Somehow software-center disappeared. Even after installing it the error was still there. update-apt-xapian-index does not help, even with the --force parameter. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/379568 Title: Synaptic won't start, report "Xapian::DatabaseCorruptError" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/379568/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
