I'm having a similar problem and I'm quite certain it is not a file
system problem (fsck is happy).  I think there is something wrong with
the pre/post installation scripts for the gnome-games-data package.
Here is the output from an attempt to install the package:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo apt-get install gnome-games-data
Reading package lists... Done

gnome-games-data is already the newest version.
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  python-pycurl guile-1.8-libs python-twisted-web python-smartpm python-pexpect
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
