glchess needs removed from suggested package list

[ill]

after typing in "$ sudo apt-get install glchess" and then apt-get telling me:glchess is already the newest version

I then type in "glchess" and I am told: $ glchess
The program 'glchess' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt-get install glchess

Even though it is obviously already installed.

In raring, glchess has been renamed to gnome-chess, and the package glchess is *transitional*. The new command name is ‘gnome-chess’.

[ill (illumilore)]

so shouldn't there be a transitional binary to accompany it?

[Phillip Susi (psusi)]

This is because the package does not exist. It needs to be removed from command-not-found so it doesn't suggest it.

In bionic, focal and jammy there is no prompt to install glchess so marking issue as fixed.
