Yes, I'm a member of the games group.  Also at the time this error 
happened /var/games/nethack/bones did exist and it had a bones file in 
it from the server.  Something else I've learned and filed a bug on this 
one, nethack does not do a proper purge when aptitude remove --purge 
nethack-common gets run nor do nethack-console.  I had the nethackdir 
removed from my system but /etc/nethack and /var/games/nethack and all 
of the startup scripts were left intact after that purge command and 
that oughtn't have happened.
