I'm glad to be helpful! :-)

Why do you chmod 2755 $(DESTDIR)$(pkglocalstatedir)? I think chmod 2755 
$(DESTDIR)$(pkglocalstatedir)/words is good enough..

The debian packages runs configure like this:

CFLAGS="$(CFLAGS)" ./configure --host=$(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE) \
	--build=$(DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE) --prefix=/usr \ 
	--mandir=\$${prefix}/share/man --infodir=\$${prefix}/share/info \
	--bindir=\$${prefix}/games  --localstatedir=/var/games


Now when I run tuxtype I still get this (little error):

$ tuxtype -w
there is no soundcard

The "there is no soundcard" message has been there for ages and it has been 
wrong for ages too - I do get sound :-) Still, this message should go away.

Also, when I choose "edit wordlists", I see three buttons, "new", "remove" 
and "done", but there are no (existing) wordlists to choose from... 


regards,
	Holger (about to upload 1.8.0-1 to Debian unstable now :)
