Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-games

The gnome-games debs have a ton of lintian warnings like the following:
W: glines: symlink-should-be-relative usr/share/gnome/help/glines/ca/figures/glines-gameover.png /usr/share/gnome/help-langpack/glines/ca/figures/glines-gameover.png

This makes it hard to perform binary deNEW. It would be nice if these and any other lintian errors/warnings were fixed up.

Below are the current lintian warnings. I believe they are harmless. Is it a good idea to add a .lintian-overrides for them?
