Hello Vittorio,
The old configure file did not recognize where Ubuntu keeps his tcl.h file.
I recently reported the bug to Fulvio.
He issued a new configure script a few days ago.
It's now possible to compile SCID's latest code without modifying the
makefile.
Here's what I did:
/1. First, get SCID's latest code:
$ git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/scid/code scid46
where "scid46" is the name you want to give to the directory where you will
compile SCID.
/2. Second, configure by specifying clang as a compiler:
./configure COMPILE=clang++ CC=clang LINK=clang++ THREADS="-std=c++11"
If you don't have clang, install it the same way you did with git, tcl-dev,
and tk-dev:
$ sudo apt-get install clang
Simply typing "./configure" did not work for me.
Hopefully, this will be corrected soon.
/3. Third, make the binary:
$ make
It should tale a while, but it should work.
This has been tested with a brand new Linux Mint (Quana).
/4. Fourth, run and enjoy:
$ ./scid
The dot is important, for if you omit it, it will ask you to install an
older version of SCID, the one being in Ubuntu repositories.
You can create an launcher to that binary and put it on your desktop if you
want.
***
If you run into problems with SCID 4.6, you can install previous versions.
This works in 3 steps:
First, configure:
$ ./configure
Second, edit the makefile to add where is the TCL library, e.g.:
TCL_LIBRARY = -L/usr/lib -ltcl
Third, make:
$ make
This should work too.
I tested these instructions with SCID 4.5.2.
This version might be more stable.
I say this as a very minimal user.
***
Please tell me if that works for you.
Best,
Ben
