Public bug reported:
This issue that synaptic fails with the error message in the title has
been reported as
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/379568 and
mentioned that the solution is to run `sudo update-apt-xapian-index`
which doesn't work in general, but it shouldn't be necessary for the
user to intervene anyway. The feedback needs to be improved (don't print
an message, but instructions on how to fix the issue or even better let
`synaptic` run the commands).
