[Solved] Stockfish 12 released.

[keos]

The first option:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/75gzfgu7qo94 ... Br4r_RwhGa

None worked for me, they barely make a few moves and stop ...

The other option: http://abrok.eu/stockfish/ does not clarify which version is the one they are exhibiting, updating, whatever ...

[keos]

Just in case. This is what according to this command i already have installed in my system:

Code: Select all

keos@keos-mx:~
$ apt -qq list stockfish
stockfish/now 12-0.1~mx19+1 amd64 [instalado, local]
stockfish/stable 9-2 i386
keos@keos-mx:~
$ whereis stockfish 9-2 i386
stockfish: /usr/games/stockfish /usr/local/bin/stockfish /usr/share/man/man6/stockfish.6.gz
9-2:
i386: /usr/bin/i386 /usr/share/man/man8/i386.8.gz
keos@keos-mx:~
$
keos@keos-mx:~
$ whereis stockfish 12-0.1~mx19+1
stockfish: /usr/games/stockfish /usr/local/bin/stockfish /usr/share/man/man6/stockfish.6.gz
12-0:
keos@keos-mx:~
$ 
 

It said nothing about stockfish-11. And it was downloaded/extracted ... -- there is not stockfish other than 9 and 12

Why 11 version disappears from the repos ...?

if you really want to know: because you asked for version 12...
You can only have one version from a debian package at the same time, so if you want different versions Stockfish versions, it seems easiest to just download from the Stockfish site. If those versions don't work, well, maybe you have to try to change some settings in the chess program you're using.

Yes, I asked for 12 and it was obtained, thanks!!.

I thought the issue was related, it seems that it is not, is this another matter? By entering 12 and disappearing 11, now I have a new issue, isn't it? ... should I open another thread elsewhere? Is it what you suggest?.

I don't understand when you say: "try to change some settings in the chess program you're using."

I also don't understand when you say: "You can only have one version from a debian package at the same time" -- i have version 9-2 installed. There are two stockfish, the 9 and 12. Why i can not get the 11?.

I think it's the best I can explain myself ... - if we can't get version 11, the effort to get version 12 was useless.

Your stockfish version 9 is for a weird reason the i386 package, and apt considers 'stockfish' and 'stockfish:i386' as two different packages. But when you install stockfish 12 from the repo, that overwrites any other 64-bit version that might be there.

I meant in Scid vs. PC. The downloads from the Stockfish site work perfect for me (using Arena), so maybe you just have to setup the engine correctly in Scid vs. PC (I have no experience with that) and then it will work.

It is not Debian neither stockfish ... it works very well with Arenalinux for debian:
