I'm running xubuntu 14.04 and this is still here. It won't generate new puzzles. ** (gnome-sudoku:9979): WARNING **: Couldn't connect to accessibility bus: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-EKpCgxP4OG: Connection refused WARNING: Not able to provide 1 puzzles in levels ['hard'] WARNING: Generate more puzzles if you really need this many puzzles! WARNING: Repeating puzzle for difficulty hard -- generate more puzzles to avoid this. I got it to work by checking "Include games you've played ..." . I assume this means there are no new games being generated. There is no error message either, I thought it was a printer problem. In addition to 580055, this bug is reported here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-sudoku/+bug/666887 and here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=797413 also.
This issue was fixed in Sudoku 3.14. Looks like Xubuntu 14.04 has only Sudoku 3.10.
