Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-games

Switching Chess to 3D mode in a Live CD session, or in a freshly
installed desktop generates this mess:

--
You are unable to play in 3D mode due to the following problems:
No Python OpenGL support
No Python GTKGLExt support

Please contact your system administrator to resolve these problems, until then 
you will be able to play chess in 2D mode.

This is even true after enabling restricted drivers (amd64) on Intrepid.
Why do we do this at all?  We should instead tell the user what packages
to install (python-gtkglext1 and python-opengl) and provide an easy
button for them to do that.
