I don't know of any restrictions that can prevent game with additional runtime
deps from entering kdegames. If I'm wrong, someone correct me :)

To me it's more interesting to know whether Kigo handles GnuGo absence
gracefully or not. I.e. I would imagine some pretty msg box or even some kind
of "welcome screen" on the main widget telling user to install GnuGo to be
able to play (if it's absent).

I didn't look at the game itself yet, sorry.

Go, KiGo, go! :)

Cheers,
Dmitry.

PS. Having similar loooking chips in kreversi and kigo seems like a nice idea
to me too.
