Bug#583618: gnome-games: fails to start

[Gary Koskenmaki]

Package: gnome-games
Version: 1:2.30.1-1
Severity: grave
Tags: sid
Justification: renders package unusable

After a recent apt-get upgrade gnome-sudoku fails to start and an error message pops up.  The next two lines are the error message.

Sudoku incorrectly installed

Sudoku is not able to start because required application files are not installed. If you are currently upgrading your system please wait until the upgrade has completed.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled gnome-games with no joy.  I have no problems with any of the other games in the gnome-games package.
