I've built with a code snapshot from 20080218, seems
to be the latest.

Done.

Remove the gnubg.db file, start gnubg, let him play
a 1-pointer against himself,
analyze and save. Open sgf file, use "Add match
or session": I get a strange
message in the status bar (No db file.png). The gnubg.db
file is indeed created,
but it is "empty" (tables are there, but
empty, except the "control" table).



Now try again to add the analyzed match (now the file
gnubg.db is there): I get
the strange dialog in "Add match.png".



After clicking on OK, nothing seems to happen, i.e.
the gnubg.db file is not modified
and still "empty" (as before).

Looks like garbage in strings ... maybe triggered
in first place by the usual windows
directory naming issues (2 bugs for the price of 1
?).
