This bug is obviously NOT a duplicate of a synaptic bug, because it
occurs with aptitude, not synaptic. The title is misleading as well,
because this bug does NOT concern the file
'/root/.synaptic/tmp//tmp_sh', but rather files like '/tmp/aptitude-
root.24195:wYCEcM/aptitudeDownload6J+8J:+PsVGmTNm^.^::Lz:%.Hi55VKA' and
'/var/lib/update-notifier/package-data-downloads/partial/andale32.exe.'

Please treat this bug as different from the supposed "original". The
underlying issue (missing(?) system user _apt and wrong(?) directory
owner, group and/or permission) probably is the same, but the
directories used are different. Fixing one bug by e.g. correcting one
directories permissions will probably NOT fix the supposed "duplicate"
bug.

Thanks.
