Reason for closing:  Upstream
Additional comments about closing:  gnome-chess can segfault when no AIs (such as gnuchess) are installed. This should get fixed upstream.

Works for me.

User gpdas has had this problem also, albeit with a different gdb output:

it still segfaults for me. reported it upstream https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=700330 .

in gnome-chess.install, is '/' missing before 'usr'?

post_install() {
glib-compile-schemas usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas
update-desktop-database -q
gtk-update-icon-cache -f -q usr/share/icons/hicolor
}

No, the paths are fine.

Luis, do you have any chess AIs like gnuchess installed in the machine?

as per suggestion at the upstream bug request, by changing the opponent in the dconf (org.gnome.gnome-chess.opponent) to "GNUChess" or anything rather than "", will enable get out of the segfault. Once this is done, it will start working.
