Description Thiago Sayao 2005-09-12 04:19:37 UTC

running synaptic from the gnome menu requires the "gksudo" command but there is
no package containing this file.. and it's not a requirement when installing
synaptic.

Comment 1 Martin Lasarsch 2005-09-12 10:56:59 UTC

Tested with rc1, same problem.  
  
additional comment: if you select synaptics and after that gnome for 
installation (in running system), yast will complain that scrollkeeper-update 
is missing. If you install synaptics after gnome installation again it works.

Fixed.

Comment 5 Philipp Thomas 2005-09-14 18:12:07 UTC

No, I got side tracked by the scrollkeeper-update thing and that has been solved.
Please open up a new bug for the gksudo bug.

Comment 6 Forgotten User gxNgjAWAcH 2005-10-04 00:55:37 UTC

Clear new install of RC1. Updated with YOU.
Now I tried to install synapric. It displayed as dependency apt-libs.

After installing apt-libs, the synapric install failed with:
2005-10-03 19:24:30 synaptic-0.56.1-2.i586.rpm install failed
rpm output:
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.72641: line 1: scrollkeeper-update: command not found

Comment 7 Philipp Thomas 2005-10-17 11:33:34 UTC

Fixed in the released version.

Comment 8 Forgotten User gxNgjAWAcH 2005-10-17 14:49:49 UTC

I can not find synaptic on the Eval DVD (32bit). Is it included only in the retail version?

Comment 9 Roger Oberholtzer 2005-12-02 13:48:28 UTC

Is this bug also refering to the problem of the synaptic mouse not working in X/KDE? I mean the problem where the mouse creates havoc in browsers and closes windows wildly? I have this in 10.0 final. I ask because I am not running gnome, to which this bug refers. I changed to the PS72 driver and all is sell. But the synaptic is broken.

Comment 10 Forgotten User gxNgjAWAcH 2005-12-02 15:22:59 UTC

We are speaking about synaptic package manager, not the synaptic mouse driver.
