[packman] Broken GCompris package OpenSuSe 11 64 bit

[Peter McCrackan]

Hi I have run into this problem when setitng up a computer for my son using
OpenSuSe 11 64 bit.
I have installeed GCompris using YAST so hopefully this is the right place
to send this information.

There is an error generated when starting GCompris, this is the error:
Couldn't find or load the file skins/gartoon/bar_bg.jpg this activity is
incomplete. Exit and report the problem to the authors. OK.

I have contacted the Author (Bruno) and he asked me to run GCompris from
Terminal to see other errors which I did as pasted in below, his comments
are that there is an error in the packaging.

This show evidence of the problem. Pathes should be /usr not /usr/usr
This is ugly but you may create a link /usr/usr -> /usr
As root:
cd /usr
ln -s /usr usr

Do you found how to contact the packager, it is up to him to fix this.
