Public bug reported: Not much more to add.. "sudo synaptic" fails silently after entering my admin pwd and produces no terminal or other output. The syslog contains something like:
synaptic[2503]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f36b0affbf6 sp 00007fff0d1c9d80 error 4 in libstdc++.so.6.0.14[7f36b0a63000+e8000] I'm happy to follow instructions to install the appropriate debug symbols and get more informative info..
