Hi!
I've looked deeper into apt's features and found certain things that
could implemented in synaptic as well. For example, I find it very
useful to have a possibility to reinstall packages. I have encountered
situations a couple of times when this feature helped me a lot, so I
think synaptic users would be interested in it as well.
Another issue is that it is possible to integrate information about an
update into apt's pkglists. However I did not find any way to extract
this information from the client-side (even with apt-* tools). Probably,
it will be good to have a possibility to access this information from
synaptic.
Best wishes and thanks for a good product,
Andrey
