I have installed the latest SCID package (1:4.7.0+dfsg1-1ubuntu2) from Ubuntu via Synaptic. However, when I open SCID I still see the old UI (Help >> About shows version 4.19).

I am using Ubuntu 20.04. Entering type -a scid shows two lines:

scid is /usr/local/bin/scid  
scid is /usr/games/scid

I can get the new version by entering /usr/games/scid at the bash prompt. I'd like to have the Icon point to that version.

Any suggestions?

  • Are you using a supported Ubuntu release? Which? What does type -a scid show? – waltinator Feb 05 '22 at 21:38

You can find which package provides the two scid executables with

 dpkg -S /usr/local/bin/scid
 dpkg -S /usr/games/scid

and sudo apt uninstall the package you don't want.
