Package: alien-arena
Version: 7.53+dfsg-1
Severity: normal
The alien-arena wrapper script tries to make a link from /usr/share/games
/alien-arena/data1 to "$HOME/.config/alien-arena" which fails.
Creating the link by hand fails as well. It succeeds with sudo, tough.

Your permissions on that directory structure must somehow be set as
unwritable by your own account. You'll have to fix that yourself.
$ chmod a+w $HOME/.config/alien-arena
should fix it. If not, $HOME/.config itself isn't writable and you'll
need to fix that similarly.
