Yeah, this bug from Synaptic, *started *to *appear *on *Version 13 *I
believe, since I have Ubuntu *12.04 running *on a Backbox *distro *and I
*don't have that stupid pid > 0 failed e**rror. *

Just forget that error, I am more *concerned *in Ubuntu *upgrades*, I am
really *sad *since they launched V12.
Ubuntu 14.04 *last **release *that *should have been* a great version
(/Ubuntu is my preferred Operative System since ever/) it isn't, there
are *bugs everywhere*, *why *can't we have an Ubuntu *release *without
*Unity *like before, *why *can't we have a *login screen* interface
chooser like before.
There are *lots *of *Linux Distributions* with wonderful *login
**screens *running on *Ubuntu V12 *like /*"*/*/Cylon" /*for instance, it
is a *beautiful *Distro, and why? *Because *it is *BASED *on *UBUNTU
*version *12.04*. **
And if we *start *to *revert *stuff in 14.04 LTS to get things like they
were *before *Ubuntu starts to *slowdown *and give stupid errors. **
*I know that this should not be in here I am sorry but I am also sad:

They *should *release *an update for *all the distros* with this error
with a *popup Window saying* "*We are sorry for the inconvenience but
since pid > 0 error from Synaptic aka aptitude is a minimal bug that we
will fix eventually*" - I just wonder when **

Sometimes I think : "have they started to forget the meaning of UBUNTU ? "

_*Maybe someday they will change the distros name from Ubuntu to
something else. Since the meaning of the word stopped on version 12.04
