Cleaning up Firefox bookmarks, I encountered this report again. Apparently, apt developers don't want to see this as a bug, so don't wait for a fix! To get rid of that annoying message, you should have an `_apt` user (which probably you have) and change the owner of the folder in question from `root:root` to `_apt:root`.
I'm on Debian and the above trick worked here months ago. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1522675 Title: /root/.synaptic/ not created due to locking status To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1522675/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
