This problem occurs only when running Synaptic from KDE4. Synaptic is
automatically wrapped in a perl script, for reasons that aren't clear to me.
To work around this problem, log into KDE4, start Konsole, and type
sudo synaptic
This will launch Synaptic as root without wrapping it in a perl
This is a problem for me as well. Is there any workaround besides using a
different package manager or running Synaptic in a desktop environment besides
KDE?
