hi,

i just compiled your newest master source (on Linux) by just doing make in the src folder. All went well, it created a binary of 1.0 Mb which runs fine. I have the supplied NNUE file and config file arasan.rc in the same folder.

however, i have a question about the settings by the config file arasan.rc . i disabled the opening book by the line book.book_enabled=false but the uci command gives this output :

here, OwnBook is true .. i'd expect it to be false due to my config setting !?
