Bug Description
Have been a long time Mint user and wanna start out by thanking you guys for a great distro.
I recently installed the December 2010 release, 64 bit LMDE on a Lenovo T400 laptop. Found that the Synaptic Package Manager has the "Quick Search" filter greyed out. I can still press the "search" button and initiate searches but the "Quick Search" filter is inaccessible.
Fwiw, I have /boot in a different partition, / in a separate partition and I dual boot with Vista 32 bit using the Vista bootloader + EasyBCD + GRUB (which has been written to the /boot partition).
Have used both the menu shortcut and the terminal to open up Synaptic and both have same results - Quick search greyed out.

Please also confirm whether package was removed by yourself
or never present on the original ISO.
