Same problem here after a squeeze --> wheezy upgrade :

I get :
E: The value 'squeeze-backports' is invalid for APT::Default-Release as such a 
release is not available in the sources
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
When trying to open synaptic, it then closes.

I have no apt.conf, no /root/.synaptic folder and here is my
/etc/apt/sources.list   :

deb http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/debian/ wheezy main contrib non-free
deb-src http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/debian/ wheezy main contrib non-free
