Probably means SPM - Synaptic Package Manager. 



There seem to be a few fixes that solve this problem. The thread below
gives a good overview. I was able to fix it by removing firefox and
firefox gnome support in synaptic and then reinstalling in synaptic.
Also had to reinstall yelp and ubuntu-desktop. Some of the posters in
this thread were able to solve it using the same procedure - see the
last few posts. Hope it works out
