OK, while investigating into this I found that there's in fact an
(undocumented) configuration option "quiet" which can be used to make
apt-listchanges do what I want if I put "quiet=2" in
/etc/apt/listchanges.conf. But I'm not sure if this option was ever
meant to be used that way, and it isn't reachable via the debconf dialog
either.
What do you think, should this bug be reassigned to apt-listchanges as a
documentation bug, or should synaptic be made to behave better? Maybe
it'd be enough to simply remove the
putenv("APT_LISTCHANGES_FRONTEND=gtk") from synaptic. The console window
should open automatically after a timeout anyway, and apt-listchanges is
not installed by default.
