Bug Description
Binary package hint: ksudoku
When opening a new (2D, order 9) game with difficulty set to 'hardest' and symmetry to 'none', ksudoku will at times open games whose difficulty is way below this level. Happens apparently randomly and only now and then; I would estimate the chance to be 5% or less. The remainder of the opened games seem to have the correct difficulty level.
A similar bug exists upstream in debian bug #350958; I can confirm the observations made there regarding the command line output of ksudoku claiming a certain difficulty level (-1) while only having a number of remaining numbers that would be appropriate for the easiest levels only:
$ ksudoku 2>&1 | grep ^REM
REMAINING NUMBERS 57 GIVEN 24 DIFFICULTY : -1
REMAINING NUMBERS 57 GIVEN 24 DIFFICULTY : 0
REMAINING NUMBERS 54 GIVEN 27 DIFFICULTY : -1
REMAINING NUMBERS 18 GIVEN 63 DIFFICULTY : -1 => difficulty -1 but few fields open?
REMAINING NUMBERS 55 GIVEN 26 DIFFICULTY : -1
Kubuntu feisty, ksudoku 0.3-4ubuntu3

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 beta or later?
