I took a look into the debug file and found that i messed up the
polyglot directory,
i mixed up the xboard params "-polyglotBook" and "-polyglotDir"....it
works fine again :)
from xboard.debug:
StartChildProcess (dir="/home/srdja/Projects/books/book.bin") polyglot
-noini -ec "/home/srdja/Projects/chess/bin/stockfish7" -ed "." -uci
NalimovCache=4

Recently my xboard on Ubuntu Linux 14.04 throws an error when starting
an UCI engine via polyglot.
Tried version 4.7.3 from repository and 4.8.0 self compile, testwise
removed .xboardrc and xboard.conf and reinstalled, no luck.

When starting polyglot itself, it looks alright...

I surely installed some updates recently, not sure which could have
such an effect...any suggestions?
