Binary package hint: synaptic

I attempted to unlock a package with a locked version as a regular user:

$ synaptic

(pick a locked package)
(click on Package->Lock Version, which already has a checkbox)

error opening tmpfile: /var/lib/synaptic/.tmp_preferences
Segmentation fault

This happens in up-to-date intrepid. (synaptic 0.62.1ubuntu10)
