Have you tried re-installing Synaptic? I know that you say it once worked, but the system is not static, meaning something could have come apart after an update. I would first make sure that you have all of the packages upgraded to the most recent and if that does not fix it then go for removing and re-installing. Open a terminal to fix it and use these commands as you see fit.
sudo apt-get update (gets the most recent package listing) sudo apt-get upgrade (upgrades anything that has a newer package) sudo apt-get remove synaptic (leaves behind the config files and the deb file in the apt cache) sudo apt-get --purge remove synaptic (removes config files as well) sudo apt-get clean (removes downloaded deb files from the cache) sudo apt-get install synaptic (installs synaptic) note: the clean command will remove all deb files in the cache and not just Synaptic. It will keep your system clean but will mean downloading a fresh copy as you need them.
