Package: synaptic Version: 0.55+cvs20050218-1 Severity: normal If I select Package/Configure... on a debconfable package with no settings to set right now (for example, adduser behaves like that on my system), the behaviour is confusing. If I run
dpkg-reconfigure -fgnome adduser from the command line, it does indeed return to the command line straight away, which is probably expected. Since synaptic uses this (as far as I know), it seems to do nothing, which makes it look like it's ignoring the menu item entirely. I'm not sure about the best way to fix this, perhaps dpkg-reconfigure has a return code you could check?
