Installing gir1.2-launchpad-integration-3.0 allows gnome-sudoku to start on Ubuntu 12.04. python-launchpad-integration wasn't sufficient.

 Even ubuntu-desktop doesn't include gir1.2-launchpad-integration-3.0 in its dependency chain, only a Recommends via software-center.

 Anyway, either add the dependency or change the patched-in code in main.py to omit that menu item if the library can't be imported.

The lpi patch is gone from gnome-games's source tree in Saucy, so at some point this bug disappeared. It still affects 12.04 LTS, but won't affect future releases.

[Peter Cordes (peter-cordes)]

I updated the title again, the "won't run" part of the bug description is the symptom if you hit this bug, but that only happens when you either install gnome-sudoku on a lean install that doesn't include the recommends: packages of ubuntu-desktop, or if you strip stuff out of a desktop install.

  A kubuntu-desktop doesn't pull in gir1.2-launchpad-integration-3.0, even with recommends, so installing this on a default kubuntu system would fail.

 I didn't want to raise undue alarm about it not working "out of the box" for most people, since it's fixed for later releases anyway.
