My update-notifier icon in the system tray is now showing an error. I
have tried everything I could find. Strangely I can use synaptic, apt-
get, and even aptitude perfectly but the update icon continues to show
an error.

'E:Could not open file /var/lib/synaptic/preferences - open (13:
Permission denied)'

I think it is related to the failed upgrade of alsa-utils and though it
has upgraded properly now I seem to have this residual error.
