Hi, The shared score file was abandoned because it required angband to run setgid, which caused security issues. Admittedly these were originally only relevant to the gtk build (which was removed in 3.4.0 anyway), but the upstream devteam decided on private-dirs as the way forward. The scoring mechanism has been very broken for a long time anyway!
So although I'll leave the bug open in case others want to comment, I won't build angband with setgid for the time being. CC
