[Bug-gnubg] dice autoroll problem

[Steve Cormack]

Hi,

When I upgraded to Linux Mint 17,a bug appeared in GnuBackgammon which I 
have not seen before and I can't find mention of it anywhere else. Now 
and again during a match, my dice will be rolled automatically after 
gnubg has finished its turn. This will continue until the end of the 
game, then for the rest of the match, thus depriving me of the 
opportunity of using the doubling cube.

The problem is intermittent and I'm not sure what triggers it. It may be 
related to me using the 'end game' feature, whereupon the autoroll 
continues into the next game, but it doesn't happen every time I use the 
'end game' feature.

I'd be happy to supply any help or info that you desire, just ask, but 
in the meantime, here is my basic system info:

Thank you for a wonderful free programme which continually reminds me 
I'm not as good a player as I thought I was.

Best regards,
