Bug Description
If an upgrade process failed it might help to run 'dpkg --configure -a'. As this
needs root priviliges (which require sudo - which is not mentioned in the
dialog), synaptic should run dpkg --configure -a automatically if necessary.

Thanks for your bugreport.
Synaptic will now run dpkg --configure -a automatically if it detects that it is needed (e.g. on failures during upgrade).
Cheers,
Michael
