I checked my Gentoo box and there "tipoftheday.glade" is located in:

games-board/pychess-0.8.2
(/usr/share/games/pychess/glade/tipoftheday.glade)

Then I checked this Ubuntu 9.04RC box and found that all the PyChess
files are on the box in:

/usr/share/games/pychess/glade/

..but none of these files are found (not just tipoftheday.glade, that is
just the first file tried).

SOLUTION (not recommended or supported, probably, but it _works_):

# mkdir  /usr/lib/python2.6/glade/
# cp -v /usr/share/games/pychess/glade/* /usr/lib/python2.6/glade/

..and now I get to play PyChess again. I have very little experience
with .deb packages, my only Ubuntu use is that I put it on giveaway-to-
n00b boxes. I assume it is just some guile path issue of some sort which
makes it look for pychess in the wrong place. Above cp "fix" works and
lets me play, the real solution is to adjust some file to look in the
right path.
