Please see this script for the slackware package, which corrects the permissions and tries a workaround (writeble only for users in ``games'' group in /var/games/scid linked to /usr/share/scid). I added a section to the debian manpage, suggesting to put these files in ~/.scid <http://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/12.2/games/scid.tar.gz> Marco ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Scid-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/scid-users
