Bug Description
If synaptic is already open, in another user's session, synaptic dies silently
on startup, even in the console. There should be feedback, something like
"Another user is currently using Synaptic". Even better if the message would
tell who is using it.

Thanks for your bugreport.
Synaptic tries to raise the window of the running synaptic. This works quite
well for me (even if synaptic is running on a different workspace). What
window-manager do you use? Is this hoary or a very up-to-date breezy?
Thanks,
Micahel
