Should have been more verbose.

I do not tend to mess below /usr/local on my boxes and do not remember 
messing with files under 
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gnome_sudoku/gtk_goodies.

So leaving a dead branch (/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gnome_sudoku) 
after upgrading seems a bug.

On a side note, modifying the "subject" of this BTS mail by adding 
"[Utnubu-maintainers]" is annoying and doesn't help in readability.

 I see no relation with your bug report; is this an important fact for
 this bug?

 Well, that's good.  You're not supposed to mess directly with stuff
 below /usr/lib in any case.

 Is there a dead branch?  Can you list the contents of
 /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gnome_sudoku?

 It might be a bug with gnome-sudoku not properly cleaning up compiled
 python files.

 Before the Python transition, this was done by packages in their
 postinst / prerm, but now this is achieved by python-central /
 python-support (here python-support) when the version of python
 changes.

 This is because all bugs to packages maintained by the "Utnubu Team"
 are currently sent to a mailing-list.  You can ignore the tag, and you
 can use the subject of your choice for bug reports and followups.

There was see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=381001 
and my last sentence : "I did remove both directory manually." 
(s/directory/directories)

Sure, see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=381001 and 
the "ls -Rla /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gnome_sudoku" provided.

Thanks for your time and answers.

 Ah sorry, for some reason, I didn't see this the first time.

 I've found something strange with the package, but I have no
 explanation for the reason of the presence of *.pyc and *.pyo on your
 system.

 What I've found is that in the binary package in version 0.4.0-1 of
 gnome-sudoku (from snapshot.debian.net), there were no dh_python
 generated postinst / prerm snippets (in other words: dh_python probably
 wasn't called during the build, and nothing would have byte-compiled
 the *.py files).
   However, if I rebuild 0.4.0-1, the resulting package will
 byte-compile the *.py on installation (since dh_python is called).

 I'm not sure what happened, perhaps the uploader of 0.4.0-1 kept his
 build log.

 Gustavo, could you check what happened with the build of 0.4.0-1?

Subject: gnome-sudoku has been removed from Debian, closing #381001

Date: Fri, 30 May 2008 15:01:34 +0100

Version: 0.7.1-1+rm

The gnome-sudoku package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.

For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/430551 . That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.

Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.

Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
