Bug Description

I'm using Mint 15 Cinnamon x64 and I noticed when using the Synaptic Package Manager that the 'Get Screenshot' button and the 'Visit Homepage' link do not work.

The screen shot never shows any screen shots and clicking on the homepage link does nothing.

I really can't believe given the age of Mint as a distro that something like this would be broken in the package manager front-end, this I would expect from a new distro just starting out.

Someone really needs to take a SERIOUS look at this and try to get it fixed...

THANKS

This bug seems closely related to the (very long-standing) bug whereby a blank Firefox profile is loaded from Synaptic, and to the bug - which I've just encountered - where Synaptic reports a corrupt Firefox profile. I was confident that those other bugs would be reported somewhere on this tracker but I couldn't find any such reports.
