Did you use current cvs version of scid for your build? Actually, I
hoped I fixed this read only problem this weekend and at least here I
was able to use read only books just like those opened rw. Scid just
disables the save button in book tuning and of course will not try to
write to those books.
Therefore, can you confirm to use current CVS? If so, I'll check into
the issue again.
