[Bug 1547664] [NEW] Fuzzy text in terminal and gui boxes. No access to synaptic.

[readbueno]

Public bug reported:

Today upgraded from vivid to wily online, I now have fuzzy text and titles on all the boxes.
Synaptic wont open and gives the following error message:-
E: The value 'vivid' is invalid for APT::Default-Release as such a release is not available in the sources
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
However, what it actually looks like is in the attached screenshot and is the same in all boxes.
The boxes function ok and if the text is copied and pasted into a text editor it can be read normally.
I have tried re-installing synaptic from the software center but even after that it does not open.
