You can find the fix on ubuntu-inside.me

Here are the instructions:

[I]Download cedega package "cd" to the directory where you downloaded cedega debian package (for example : cd /home/yourusername/Desktop/)

Now we will create folders :[/I]

$mkdir -p cedega_000133_all/DEBIAN

*This will create cedega_000133_all folder and inside that DEBIAN folder.Now let's edit the packages, rebuild it and get things working :*

$ar p cedega_000133_all.deb data.tar.gz | tar zx -C cedega_000133_all/
$ar p cedega_000133_all.deb control.tar.gz | tar zx -C cedega_000133_all/DEBIAN/
$mv cedega_000133_all.deb cedega_000133_all.prerebuild.deb
$perl -pi -e 's/python2.4-dbus/python-dbus/' cedega_000133_all/DEBIAN/control
$dpkg-deb --build cedega_000133_all
$rm -rf cedega_000133_all
$sudo dpkg -i cedega_000133_all.deb
