Great news! I found that source tarball does not contain training bases (endings, matein1, matein2, matein3, matein4andmore, tactics... ) anymore. Is it intentional? Any way you have to include these bases back or fix Makefile because it now fails to install scid due to the following line
install -m 666 ./bases/*.* $(DESTDIR)$(SHAREDIR)/bases/ Best regards, Mikhail Kalenkov. 2011/2/14 Alexander Wagner <a.wag...@physik.uni-wuerzburg.de>: > Hi! > > Those of you who check out cvs regularly may have noticed > already that I moved up all files to a unique revision. > > Those of you who don't compile from cvs might like to point > their browser to our download page to fetch either the > windows binaries or the Unix tarball of 4.3.
