This is fixed in Gnome 3.34!
But, there was a message added in Synaptic, which is contra-productive now.
if [ "x${USING_WAYLAND}" = "x1" ]; then
# Running wayland; start synaptic without pkexec
zenity --warning --width=500 --text \
"You are using Wayland environment, Synaptic will continue without
administrative privileges.\\n\
To make Synaptic fully functional, please restart your session without Wayland."
exec "/usr/sbin/synaptic" "$@"
else
pkexec "/usr/sbin/synaptic" "$@"
fi
This can be removed! pkexec just works fine now.
