Public bug reported:
I have this issue for quite some time now. Maybe a year or so. For some
reason Synaptic is dynamic linking to libicu version 72 instead of the
current version which is libicu 76. Here is the output of "ldd
synaptic":

The fix is easy by simply installing the old libicu version under
"/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/". I have the same issue with the program
xfce4-terminal but I self compiled this program so one could argue I
need to recompile it to fix the issue but regarding synaptic this is not
compiled by myself and is from the official ubuntu repository.
