Title: Synaptic
Post by: carlo on December 07, 2013, 12:32:05 PM
hi all

i'm about razorqt version:

when i click on synaptic icon not much happens

so i tried the synaptic-pxexec and i get this:





$ synaptic-pkexec

The value for the SHELL variable was not found the /etc/shells file



This incident has been reported.





i tried to add some lines in the /etc/shell so that now it looks like this:



# /etc/shells: valid login shells

/bin/sh

/bin/dash

/bin/bash

/bin/rbash

/bin/zsh

/usr/bin/zsh

/usr/sbin/nologin

/sbin/bash

/sbin/dash

/sbin/zsh



but in vain

any hint?
