In the directories mentioned above, /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/ and /usr/share/pyshared/ the directories gnome_sudoku and glchess are duplicated. The diff between them is that one of them does contain the pyc and pyo files, which if I'm right, are generated when the py file is successfully compiled. The gnome_sudoku sources duplicated are 231.6 kb, the glChess sources are 693.5 kb, that's almost 1 Mb of wasted space.
This is still a problem in the released Lucid version. Is this a packaging problem?

Confirming it is a packaging problem, the package should install the files in /usr/share/pyshared so when the .pyc and .pyo files are generated they are not copied.
