Strange, I just rebuilt the package locally with no changes (apart from a release bump), and then it works fine.

Maybe mxml was updated in cauldron but dreamchess was not rebuilt against it.
Anyway, I'll ask for a rebuild.

I just simply cant get it to work, I don't know the problem, I installed the one that worked for Mageia 3 but half way through, the computer freezes in that one and I don't know if it's over heating the cpu or what, that one still works on my laptop on Mageia 4.1 and don't freeze so, on my main computer, I don't really know if it's the system Mageia 5 or just that simple program BattleChess. I really like the graphics on Mageia 5 and you people did a very good job with this operating system but I noticed my cpu is running about 10 degrees higher after boot up which means in my mind there is something running in the background that is causing that issue and when I play my game, it will freeze which is telling me it's the game but I could be wrong, It could be the operating system it self on that one game and I would hate to switch back to 4.1 over one simple issue. I was amazed at the woerk you put in this in the last 3 years. Thank You very much and my email is wilsona@vianet.ca Thanks Agan

You can use rpmdiff from rpmlint in order to check differences between both packages.

As you've not build your package with iurt, it was built in an environment with more packages and might have compiled with more libraries and thus it may have picked additional requires as such...

eg comparing:
http://rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/mageia/cauldron/x86_64/media/core/release/dreamchess-0.2.1-0.rc2.2.mga5.x86_64.html
http://rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/fedora/devel/rawhide/x86_64/d/dreamchess-0.2.1-9.RC2.fc22.x86_64.html

shows that FC build have picked libGL* as well as libSDL_image

So we might just miss BuildRequires on:
- pkgconfig(SDL_image)
- pkgconfig(glew)
- pkgconfig(gl)

Which FC does:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/dreamchess.git/tree/dreamchess.spec

You can use iurt in order to test those new BRs

Indeed, thanks for checking that Thierry. I've compared the package from the BS and my local rebuild with rpmdiff, and indeed:

added       REQUIRES libGL.so.1()(64bit)  
added       REQUIRES libGLEW.so.1.11()(64bit)  
added       REQUIRES libGLU.so.1()(64bit)  
added       REQUIRES libSDL_image-1.2.so.0()(64bit) 

I'll add those missing BuildRequires.

It's puzzling though that libGL and libSDL_image were added in the new build, as the package already pkgconfig(SDL_image) when it was built on the BS (and therefore pkgconfig(sdl) and pkgconfig(gl)). But GLEW and GLU would indeed be missing anyway.

Dreamchess's build system may only check for or enable SDL_image if GL is availlable...

Yeah good point, though it would be if GLU and/or GLEW is available, as GL is pulled by SDL :)

We are now in complete freeze for Mageia 5, for I'll push this one as an update as soon as Mageia 5 is released.

Whiteboard: (none) => MGA5TOO
Severity: normal => major

For future reference, the needed changes have been committed here: http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/dreamchess/current/SPECS/dreamchess.spec?r1=822748&r2=822758
Since Mageia 5 will probably be branched off the last built version, I'll probably have to commit it again to the updates/5 branch when it's created.

Finally the freeze push was done before the release.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED
Whiteboard: MGA5TOO => (none)
