Public bug reported:
For some reason, Synaptic (version 0.62.5ubuntu3) has stopped working
on my 64 bits Jaunty laptop.
I tried starting it from the terminal and got this error message :
mar...@diogenes:/var/backups$ sudo synaptic
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'Xapian::DatabaseCorruptError'
Aborted
Following different leads on launchpad, I tried the following :
- uninstalling and reinstalling synaptic with apt-get;
- sudo dpkg-reconfigure synaptic
- sudo apt-get check
- sudo apt-get clean
- sudo dpkg --configure -a
- sudo apt-get -f install
- sudo apt-get --reinstall install xauth (and then sudo chown $(echo $USER)
.Xauthority)
But nothing helped.
I checked on Google for this error, but found nothing...
Any suggestions, apart from re-installing everything?
