1. The new interface is hiding the numbers via the pop-up (when a cell is 
clicked). This is very annoying. The player cannot see the "full image".2. 
Sudoku is definitely a puzzle game. As such all the pieces should be presented 
to the player who must put them on their right place on board (the current 
situation is that the player does not know which pieces are not yet placed in 
the board which makes it a "non puzzle" game...).Of course is a mind game and 
the player can try to find which are the missing pieces by counting all the 
numbers. But what is the usefulness of letting him "work" the way paperwork 
(printed sudoku puzzles) restricted the game by allowing him to write (down or 
up) in a cell? This is just one way (the most difficult way) to solve a puzzle.
Just because this is not unity does not mean ubuntu must have it in standard 
repositories.Just because this is a prerequisite for gnome enviroment also does 
not mean ubuntu must have it in standard repositories.The very annoying popup 
makes the game useless.
Also, in the translation section of launchpad, there is a string "implying" 
that the board can be as small as user wants, but this is not true. There is a 
minimum which is very big, takes almost  half of (my) screen. (I am not if this 
is a limit caused by preferences in my desktop options.)

The discussion is not about gnome having it fixed (or gnome doing anything 
else). Is about "IF UBUNTU" must have such games in its standard repositories.
