Barry, the second argument of the signal indicates whether the action is
authorized or not. For the synaptic backend it must be True because
synaptic must be run as root to perform the update and is always
authorized. I can't think of a way to know if synaptic has been
authorized or not to do the check.
I think your fix is incorrect because you set the second argument to 0
which is "False", and the package list won't be refreshed. Unless my
boolean math is wrong, the patch should be :
