The filters file is read by Configuration class (apt-pkg), whose
format is defined in apt.conf(5). Besides being syntactically
incorrect [1] there are other issues that prohibit reliable parsing of
the data.
For example, this pattern from one of the standard filters combines
several sub-patterns:
btw: i was only able to include newlines in the name filter by pasting
text.

Such characters may still enter the filter file through other means.
This will not resolve the segfault, only reduce the likely-hood of
hitting it.

Ok, so I removed that filter (using vim) from the filters file, and now
I can run synaptic again - yay!
It was over a year ago when the filter was added, so my memory is very
hazy, but I think it's quite possible that I created that filter. I

Thanks, that helps reproducing, I have managed to do that. However, there is a
strange New Filter 1 in your filters file with the following name filter:
"libdbd-mysql-perl (4.016-1)

I had a look at the last log file in /root/.synaptic/log/ whose
modification time matches the filters file, and it said this:

Just one more question: seems like the issue happens while reading the
filters, and as I can not reproduce it, it might be related to your
filters configuration. Could you please attach the file
$HOME/.synaptic/filters for further investigation?

Ok, I extracted just the stacktrace for convenience. For now, that
should be enough to investigate the issue.

Those files are not really helpful. To investigate a segfault we need
the backtrace (stack trace), which you can produce by installing debug
symbols and using gdb if required; see the previous links I posted.

Not much more to add.. "sudo synaptic" fails silently after entering my admin
pwd and produces no terminal or other output.
The syslog contains something like:

Ok. This will require a crash report (backtrace, etc.). Please see
these resources for how to collect this information:

I tried again with 12.04.1 and the symptoms persist. The segfault in
syslog from `sudo synaptic` is:

error 4 in libstdc++.so.6.0.16[7f2a08854000+e2000]
interestingly, `gksu synaptic` exits without produces anything in
syslog

I can report that this happens for me, and it doesn't only happen with
'sudo synaptic' but also with 'gksu synaptic' (which one really should
be using for graphical apps) and with synaptic-pkexec, which is what we
