The engine I use is UCI. (Rybka 2.3.2a).
The same is true for other UCI engines (Toga II for example).
They both behave differently under 3.6.24 than they do under 3.6.23 but I have
no idea why.
Thanks for your thoughts on this.

Hi,
Shane Hudson added me as admin at SF. So let's say bye to Scid2 at SF (I
will delete the project).
So I will be able to update CVS there, but some sections need work :

Well, the names should be normalised to scids usual

Agreed. We should decide how we will treat things like ambiguous

The engine output is exactly the same as in previous Scid's versions. Only
the UI has changed.

I just downloaded and compiled 3.6.24. The analysis window only shows the
current PV and not the previous PVs. Is there a way to show each PV as it is
calculated and scroll the PVs so the user can see how it changes over time?
Without that, I'm afraid I'll have to go back to .23 ...

You were right :

declared outside of this function:
