Hi,

it seems I can  provide a hot trail but without understanding all 
details or packaging implications.

The problem is kind of described in the README file.
https://sources.debian.org/src/xgammon/0.99.1128-11/doc/README

It seems the xgammon.ad file is "missing" in the system. But it is 
present in the package source.
https://sources.debian.org/src/xgammon/0.99.1128-11/src/xgammon.ad

1. Download that file.
2. xrdb -merge xgammon.ad
3. xgammon should work then.

I don't understand why that file is not in the binary package.
https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/xgammon/filelist

Regards,
Christian
