Thank you. The situation should improve even more drastically in the
next few days.

All noted and will be handled soon (today probably). :-)

Hmm, that's strange. Is no clicking working at all? Can you warp the
dragon around by clicking on the floor?

If you can, are you sure that the objects you've clicked on run
commands that are implemented? Currently talking is not yet done so
many things don't react at all as they use the Talk or JustTalk
commands. Please try right-clicking on the "paper on the wall" in the
library room (one left from the starting one). For me, it changes to a
different picture when it is right-clicked.

If this doesn't work, could you please try running:

./scummvm -d6 --debugflags=general

and click on the screen? This will show if the mouse clicks are registered.

If registering the clicks is not a problem, but instead the scripts
don't get run correctly, you could try:

./scummvm -d6 --debugflags=bytecode

to see whether the scripts get executed once you click on an object.
