Great that you want to help fixing bugs in GNOME Sudoku. Don't hesitate to 
ask about anything :-)

I think you are missing gnome-python-desktop:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gnome-python-desktop/2.18/
It is required for bugbuddy integration glChess and GNOME Sudoku.

But the error message which was given was not specific enough,
so this should be fixed. I don't think the README file is updated with 
information about the latest new package dependencies yet either.
