Notes

How to get the search box back: https://askubuntu.com/questions/763857/how-to-get-quick-filter-back-in-synaptic-ubuntu-16-04

Basically:

sudo apt-get install apt-xapian-index
sudo update-apt-xapian-index -vf

If that doesn't work, you can try:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall synaptic
sudo dpkg-reconfigure synaptic

Ubuntu 25.04

The xapian search functionality is broken in Ubuntu 25.04 (including Ubuntu-MATE and Kubuntu), but there is a quick workaround posted on GitHub.
