Title:
  "Generate package download script" create empty files (in the case of
  "generate scrip" only one line: "#!/bin/sh").

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “synaptic” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: synaptic

  The files are (at least some times) created under the root account
  (i.e. /root/packages or /root/Desktop/packages) instead of the user
  who ran Synaptic. They are still empty (0-length) files.

  These files should contain information about all installed packages
  that can be used to duplicate the system.

  Ubuntu 9.10, Synaptic version 0.62.7ubuntu6 (karmic)

  Some of that has been reported as bugs in Ububtu 9.04 or earlier
  but not the part about creating the files in the root account, I believe.
