Agreed - this bug clearly "makes the package in question unusable or
mostly so".

For anyone trying to use the workaround the submitter gave, the
"glest.ini" mentioned is in /usr/share/games/megaglest/glest.ini, but
you can also specify this setting on the command line like so:

megaglest --data-path=/usr/share/games/megaglest

The language files still seem to need modifying though.

Cheers,
