I noticed that there are two Position classes, both seem pretty similar which mostly matching constructor and method signatures.

Do they implement slightly different rules? Is one faster than the other?

There is this quote in the readme:

the Arimaa position representation (as bitboards in board.py and x88 in x88board.py)

But I can't figure out what x88 means.

I'm using python 2.6.6 on debian. Attempting to run the scripts on master leads to import errors. For example:
arhart@debian:~/arimaa/AEI$ ./pyrimaa/gameroom.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./pyrimaa/gameroom.py", line 56, in
from pyrimaa import aei
ImportError: No module named pyrimaa

Am I running the correct command? Do I need to do something with setup.py (if so, what)? I can go through and adjust the imports to not reference pyrimaa, but I'm wondering if I'm not running the scripts as intended.

Attempting to use a link from the current directory results in the same error:
arhart@debian:/arimaa/AEI$ ls -l ./gameroom.py
lrwxrwxrwx 1 arhart arhart 19 Dec 26 21:56 ./gameroom.py -> pyrimaa/gameroom.py
arhart@debian:/arimaa/AEI$ ./gameroom.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./gameroom.py", line 56, in
from pyrimaa import aei
ImportError: No module named pyrimaa
