Bug Description

Binary package hint: xmpuzzles

Open a terminal and type in the name of one of the games, xmtrianlges for example, to observe that it is woking.
Next try to open the same game from the debian menu (it is not listed by default in the Games folder due to a lack of .desktop file). The cursor may change to 'busy' for half a second, but the game won't open.
Place a launcher on the desktop and target it to /usr/games/xmtriangles. Double-click on the launcher. Nothing happens.
Package version: 7.1.5-1ubuntu1.

This seems to be fixed in Feisty. We have a new upstream version, and the non-functional Debian menus have been replaced by working gnome/kde menus.

I am going to close this bug. Feel free to reopen it if you find the same problem in Feisty, or if you think it is important enough to request a backport.
