[Bug 844494] [NEW] gnome-sudoku does not start in Kubuntu, requires python-gconf

 

Public bug reported:

After a clean install of Kubuntu 11.04, I installed the gnome-sudoku
package using KPackageKit (kubuntu's graphical software installer).  The
game does not start.  I tried "sudo apt-get purge gnome-sudoku" and a
reinstall of the package with no change in the results.  If I run the
program from a terminal window I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/games/gnome-sudoku", line 67, in <module>
    start_game()
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/gnome_sudoku/gnome_sudoku.py", line 21, in start_game
    import main
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/gnome_sudoku/main.py", line 20, in <module>
    import printing
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/gnome_sudoku/printing.py", line 5, in <module>
    from gtk_goodies import gconf_wrapper
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/gnome_sudoku/gtk_goodies/gconf_wrapper.py", line 6, in <module>
    import gconf
ImportError: No module named gconf

It seems that a required dependency is python-gconf, and it is not being installed for some reason.  A workaround is:
"sudo apt-get install python-gconf"
