New version in out !!!! I hope this one does not crash with the engines you use :D

@kraxor Yes, downloading the RC sounds reasonable. Get it from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/scid/files/ and let us know how it goes :-D

@kraxor There is a new RC version. Perhaps you could try with that one

donpicoro commented on 2013-03-17 17:21 (UTC)

I cannot really come up with anything. I removed some optimization flags used at compilation time. If that doesn't help is probably a bug we should report upstream.

I did rebuild scid on my 100% up-to-date system and still have the same behaviour (crash on engine exit). Did I miss something? Can you guys help me diagnose the problem?

@donpicoro: Once again, could you please bump version number to force rebuild? Or maybe there is a better way to rebuild the package with the brand new tcl/tk. Rebuilding makes it work flawlessly, I tested that

Hi @donpicoro: Thanks for your answer. Yes, scid works after rebuilding it against new tcl/tk (guess it is my mistake, I'd recently started using pacaur and I did not notice that it doesn't really "rebuild" things when reinstalling). I think that you could simply bump version number to force "rebuild" throughout all AUR users. Thanks again.

@mrzeznicki: The PKGBUILD uses the following line to get the tk version pacman -Q tk | cut -f2 -d" " | cut -f1-2 -d"." Granted, it should read tcl instead of tk... my bad. They typically have the same version number so it doesn't really matter. I honestly do not understand what else shall I do "make this package work with current tcl/tk". I should automatically do it if you rebuild it yourself. I feel I am missing something here about exactly what you want.

donpicoro: It's great thing that you understand that you're doing a service to the community. Please continue to do so, lots of people, me included, benefit from your work. So, I do not need to convince you that making this package work with current tcl/tk is a good thing. If it's too much work then you may either try to read and learn or just feel free to drop a comment here, someone knowledgable in tcl will surely step in to help. Thanks again. Looking forward to having it updated.

Hej to all, sorry for the delay. I was having some well-earned holidays. I do not have the crashes you present. Can you rebuild it again and check whether you still get the error? @mrzeznicki: This is the AUR and more than anything, this is a community. Read, Learn and Contribute.
