This bug is obviously NOT a duplicate of a synaptic bug, because it occurs with aptitude, not synaptic. The title is misleading as well, because this bug does NOT concern the file '/root/.synaptic/tmp//tmp_sh', but rather files like '/tmp/aptitude-root.24195:wYCEcM/aptitudeDownload6J+8J:+PsVGmTNm^.^::Lz:%.Hi55VKA' and '/var/lib/update-notifier/package-data-downloads/partial/andale32.exe.'

Please treat this bug as different from the supposed "original". The underlying issue (missing(?) system user _apt and wrong(?) directory owner, group and/or permission) probably is the same, but the directories used are different. Fixing one bug by e.g. correcting one directories permissions will probably NOT fix the supposed "duplicate" bug.

Thanks.
