Hi all. I'm having a problem trying to make scid running with another
version of togaII, the one included in the debian distribution
http://alpha.uhasselt.be/Research/Algebra/Toga/, toga2-141SE_posix. 

The binary is placed in /usr/games/toga2, and trying to use the books
shipped with scid 3.6.26 generate the following error, while "Playing a
serious game".

Unable to load book
Unable to load book
    while executing
"sc_book load $bn $slot"
    (procedure "::book::scBookOpen" line 16)
    invoked from within
"::book::scBookOpen $book $slot"
    (procedure "::book::getMove" line 3)
    invoked from within
"::book::getMove $::sergame::bookToUse [sc_pos fen] $::sergame::bookSlot"
    (procedure "::sergame::engineGo" line 91)
    invoked from within
"::sergame::engineGo 3"
    ("after" script)

The problem seems not to exist with the version of togaII shipped with
scid. I thought the problem was in the book itself, but compiling
polyglot and using it with toga2-141SE_posix does not generate any error
and toga2 does use the book.

So, i can't figure what's wrong. Is the problem somewhere in the
configuration, or with scid itself? 

Thanks in advance.
