[1.] One line summary of the problem:
segfault with synaptic 0.16-6 and kernel 2.6.0-test4-bk6

[2.] Full description of the problem/report:
I noticed that since I changed from the 2.4 kernel to the 2.6 kernel
synaptic 0.16-6 for debian allways segfaults at a certain point.
At first the programm starts without problem. It biulds the dependency
tree and then works fine. But if I press the "update" button it first
downloads all the necessary pakage lists, reads them, builds the
depenency tree and then it segfaults. The same thing happens if I try to
install a new pakage: First it does all the installing and configuring.
Then it reads the pakage lists, biulds the dependency tree and then it
segfaults.
The apt-get tool works fine. No problem there.

[3.] Keywords (i.e., modules, networking, kernel): memory, segmentation
fault

[4.] Kernel version (from /proc/version):
root@chaos:/proc # cat version
Linux version 2.6.0-test4-bk6 (root@xxxxxxxxx) (gcc version 3.2.3
20030415 (Debian prerelease)) #1 Fri Sep 5 14:03:55 CEST 2003

[5.] Output of Oops.. message (if applicable) with symbolic information
resolved (see Documentation/oops-tracing.txt)
[6.] A small shell script or example program which triggers the
problem (if possible)
see above.

[7.] Environment
[7.1.] Software (add the output of the ver_linux script here)
root@chaos:/usr/src/linux/scripts # sh ver_linux
If some fields are empty or look unusual you may have an old version.
Compare to the current minimal requirements in Documentation/Changes.
