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. * Sent from RemarQ http://www.remarq.com The Internet's Discussion Network * The fastest and easiest way to search and participate in Usenet - Free!
