Ok, I just find what is this strange thing. You can find information about smartsuite here : http://packages.debian.org/smartsuite This is a really old application, which is now deprecated (replaced by smartmontools, I think). It exists only in woody now, and disappeared from sid. I think I have it in my database because I installed it a long while ago. If you can't find it, it's because you run sid or sarge and never installed this application before, I guessed. ;) Sorry, I just notice that. But, synaptic shouldn't crash when it can't find a package changelog. Nevertheless, it's absolutelly not critical, since it doesn't happen really often. I can now reproduce it only with packages I have installed then removed and for which I haven't had a line in source.list anymore. For example, I recently removed mplayer-k6 (I replaced it by mplayer-nogui) and I removed the line about mplayer packages in my source.list. So, it crashes when I try to get changelog for mplayer-k6, but it doesn't crash for mplayer-nogui (it just tells me it can't get it). I hope it helps.
