The handling of the opening book is a source of confusion with this package.
I just installed package crafty-books-medium. It appears to have installed the book into /var/lib/crafty. In Karmic, the Ubuntu package defaults the opening book to the current directory. (This shows up under strace.) The search for tablebase files, however, defaults to /usr/lib/crafty/TB so at first blush the book default appears broken and inconsistent. My book works when I run crafty as follows: /usr/games/crafty bookpath=/var/lib/crafty There is also an environment variable documented on the man page to achieve this effect. However, when run this way, it complains that my book can not be opening for writing, so learning mode is disabled. Perhaps this is why the default was left at . Logical, on some level, perhaps. Friendly or predictable, not even close. -- Crafty does not use the opening book https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/533756 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
