[Bug 807771] Re: synaptic crashed with SIGABRT in __kernel_vsyscall()

[SB]

*bump*

it seems crazy to me that this bug has been open for almost three months
with 12 duplicates and being classified as a HIGH priority bug doesn't
have anybody assigned to fix this. obviously the software-center covers
most of the features necessary for average users, but the fact that the
only advanced package manager available in ubuntu doesn't work is
killing me. how am i supposed to run a beta version of my favorite OS if
I can't do any advanced package management like forcing package versions
etc.?

i personally am in the same situation as #14, where all accessibility
features are disabled (though i tested out the OSK a couple of days ago)
and i still can't run synaptic.

any more info that we can give to help fix this???
