Re: gnuchess --addbook doesn't exit anymore

[Antonio Ceballos]

Hi Vincent,

I have realized that this bug was reported some time ago, and I did fix it in the subversion repository. However, I did not release a version including that bug fix. If you want, you could take the sources from subversion and build a version for you. Anyway, I will wrap up the last changes and release 6.2.3 within the next week with a fix for the --addbook bug.

Thanks. I've uploaded this quick patch in Debian for now, but I'll revert if you
upload a better one:
