I do not understand the solution: is it for the normal user (but what shall I do ?) or the mantainer ?

Comment 2 Dave Hodgins 2013-07-16 00:11:15 CEST

The workaround is to run (as root)
chmod g-s /usr/bin/glchess

As installed, glchess has setgid for the group games.
Not only is this not needed, for the game to work, it
actually stops it from working.
