The famous Stockfish chess engine enters debian unstable. After some trouble building on all available hardware-architectures, there are now packages for all supported archs available: alpha, amd64, armel, hppa, hurd-i386, i386, ia64, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390 and sparc.

Stockfish is an awesome chess engine, but Houdini may be a touch stronger. The best part is that they are free! I have played Houdini head to head at different time controls with no opening book against Rybka 4.1 and they draw every time. Amazing. Now Rybka is scrambling to keep up!
