I did some google searching and nothing has turned up about this so far.
I went to launch synaptic from my menu and nothing happened. I thought this is weird.
So I opened up a terminal and launched it and it said command not found.
Well I know it is there.
So I ran su synaptic and it launched.
Ok so what is wrong. Not sure.
So I looked at the launcher and it had this as the command : synaptic-pkexec
so I ran that and this is what I got:
Code: Select all
cihonm@cihonm:~$ synaptic-pkexec

This incident has been reported.
This is a pure debian testing machine.
Any ideas?
