Dear linusers, Due to license problems, the actual scid package for debian has disabled the use of tablebase (the menu item is gray). So, to have this feature, I need to compile it from scratch.
I've followed the steps: - download the tar.bz2 from the official site - untar it - run ./configure I got some dependency problems with tcl and tk that I already solved. But there is one that still puzzles me: # ./configure configure: Makefile configuration program for Scid Renaming "Makefile" to "Makefile.bak" Tcl/Tk version: 8.5 Your operating system is: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 Location of "tcl.h": /usr/include/tcl8.5 Location of "tk.h": /usr/include/tcl8.5 Location of Tcl 8.5 library: /usr/lib Location of Tk 8.5 library: /usr/lib Location of X11 library: not found Checking if your system already has zlib installed: yes. Using Makefile.conf. Not all settings could be determined! The default Makefile was written. You will need to edit it before you can compile Scid. I've tried # apt-get install xlibs xlibs-dev to no avail. Also, other tips from ubuntu sites doesn't solve the problem (like xorg-dev). I wonder, what is the name of the package I need to solve the linking problem, or if I already have it installed, where is it? I have no /usr/lib64, although my system is 64bits. And /usr/lib/X11 has only directories rstart x11perfcomp xedit xsm; I see no libraries there. I know debian uses xorg now. But how do we compile scid? And how to create a .deb so we can easily install/uninstall the software after compiled? Thanks, Beco. -- Dr Beco A.I. researcher --> . <-- "Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home.
