Package: xboard Version: 4.4.0~beta1-1 Severity: normal Hi,
please drop the dependency on gnuchess. This is not a hard dependency; playing chess online doesn't require a chess engine, for example. The xboard package used to suggest gnuchess, which was just fine. If you think the typical xboard user wants to play against the computer or let the computer play against others, then make the xboard package recommend gnuchess, but please do not make it depend on it.
