Package: synaptic
Version: 0.80.4
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
First of all, thanks, it's working nicely otherwise.
When I moved from Debian `stable' to `testing', Synaptic stopped recognizing my
Appearance settings for the Xfce desktop, and some themes looked *very* strange
(all menus crammed over to the left side of its window and such). Under most
circumstances, it defaults to a plain-vanilla theme (or lack of theme) which is
easy enough to use; I can at least see what I'm doing. But other Appearance
settings result in a window that doesn't make much sense at all.
I'm not sure if this is a problem with the GTK engines Xfce is using, or
Synaptic itself. Maybe the new Synaptic simply exposed problems that were
already there...?
For now, I've reverted to the version of Synaptic from the `stable' repos, and
that seems to work, but I can upgrade it again and try a few things, if you
need more detail.
Thanks,
Patrick.

A bug can be closed by sending email to [email protected].
The reason must be supplied when doing that, so here it is:
