I am encountering the same problem.  I have looked through all the
makefiles.  It is either copying k2.exe or gnuchess.exe to
/winprg/winboard.  Are they meant for compiling gnuchess for MS
Windows?  I don't think executables under GNU/Linux require an exe
extension.  In any case, I gather from the makefiles that the only two
final files require are:  gnuchess, book.dat.  I am manually placing
both files in /usr/local/bin.  Are there anything else I am missing? 
Are there any man pages that should come with the package?

As for xboard, it is looking for gnuchessx.  How should I deal with
this?

I have looked at a site that contains a version 2.0 of gnuchess and the
sites detail that there are much more files that come in the package: a
gnuchess.1 file to be placed in /usr/local/man/man1, a has file to be
placed in /var, a gnuchessx file and etc.  Is the version 5 package at
the GNU ftp site complete or are there other files that we need to get.
Thanks for any help.
