The new version of gnome-games does not need -dev or -shlibs
components, so I had deleted those packages and thought I had tuned
the single new gnome-games package for seemless upgrade. Oops:(

I just released revision 3, which should fix this better. It again
contains -dev and -shlibs, both empty dummy packages, so there should
be no dpkg conflict problems.
