Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better. This particular bug has already been reported and is a duplicate of bug
#880003, so it is being marked as such. Please look
Same problem here after a squeeze --> wheezy upgrade :
I get :
E: The value 'squeeze-backports' is invalid for APT::Default-Release as such a
release is not available in the sources
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
When trying to open synaptic, it then closes.
I have no apt.conf, no /roo
I replaced the natty with oneiric logged out/in and synaptic works fine
now...thanx

I have tried both solutions suggested and I still get this error.
synaptic.conf did not even have a DefaultDistro entry, but adding a
DefaultDistro "oneiric" did not help
Also tried creating /etc/apt/apt.conf with a APT::Default-Release entry, and
that did not help either.
Where does synaptic/a
I've traced this issue to a value in /root/.synaptic/synaptic.conf :
Synaptic "" {
ViewMode "3";
showWelcomeDialog "0";
LastSearchType "1";
closeZvt "true";
vpanedPos "214";
hpanedPos "152";
windowWidth "1280";
windowHeight "947";
windowX "0";
windowY "30";
ToolbarState "2";
I think this is related to the setting of "Prefer versions from" under
Settings->Preferences->Distribution.
Might be worth it to run strace on Synaptic to see where it's reading the
setting from.
