synaptic simply disables the Apply button, but was much more interesting
to try software-center without using sudo, because it has the same
problem, and it logged something to see:
tai@Tai-Sviluppo-01:~$ software-center
2011-05-02 09:11:07,143 - softwarecenter.app - INFO - software-center-agent
finished with status 1
