I experienced problems myself with synaptic at another level I tried to edit 
the repositry list and I made something wrong in one of the entries ! ; now 
nowaqy to open synaptic anymore at it says that the repositry list is 
corrupted (but it saved it as such before !) ; I removed synaptic reloaded it 
again : noway as the same corrupted repositry list is used ! ; I wish I knew 
where to clean it up !
