This appears to be caused by the fact that synaptic usually insists on opening as root. If I open synaptic from the menu it requires that I enter my admin password. The Visit Homepage link is there but does nothing. I can drag it to my open browser (as suggested above) where it works. When I open synaptic from a terminal it opens in user mode rather than root mode. The link then works fine.
