Bug Description

ChessDB is a full-featured, open-source, chess database available in tcl/tk for Linux.

It's a work alike to the better-known Windows software ChessBase and allows a user to enter, save and playback chess games for analysis.

It can be found at http://chessdb.sourceforge.net/ .

There are 2 packages that need to be installed:

ChessDB-3.6.18.tar.gz
4-piece-tablebases.zip

Dependencies are:

tk8.5-dev
tcl8.5-dev
libsnack

I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 and have installed ChessDB successfully from source but this would be nice to see in Ubuntu's App Repository for the casual user.
