Hi All I installed apt and synaptic on my SuSE 8.0 system. Apt are working fine, but synaptic does not do any actual installations/removals, etc. It will download the packages and then when it needs to install them, it pops up a progress dialog and freezes up. When I tried to remove stuff with it, it displayed which packages will be removed and when I click 'proceed' the dialog disappears and Synaptic seems to be very happy with the state of things, but the packages are still there. Are there any additional stuff I need to set up or install to make synaptic work? I installed apt, aptlib and synaptic from the apt/extra stuff on the ftp server.
