Bug Description
If you change the gnome menu and toolbar preferences to display toolbars as
"icons only" synaptic continues to display its toolbar as "text below icons" I
feel this should respect the user's preferences.

Thanks for your bugreport.
The problem here is that synaptic runs as root (via sudo/gksudo) whereas the
toolsbar settings are part of the users gconf settings. When synaptic runs as
root it has no access to the users gconf settings.
