what? synaptic is a GUI interface to package installation and removal. why should this block anything? dpkg and apt do those tasks just fine in a terminal. i only used synaptic in the past to get a quick access to lists of files installed and locations which i now get another way. it certainly isn't a requirement...
Synaptic is able to install different versions of packages, allowing a Disabled User who is not a keyboard jockey to test Debian release's and a lot more. But I no longer care because it hurts to care, Deb has been raped and will never be mentally or usably the same and Microsoft is happy, I'm glad someone is happy.
