Re: PovRAY - Where are you?

Hi again
   Excuse me for mailing you again. I downloaded the sources and compiled them 
and I don't see any problem with povray on amd64. I have never used it but it 
compiles perfectly and seems to work.
   Please test it too and if it works, it should enter the amd64 distribution 
again, I think.
apt-get source povray
cd povray-3.6.1
fakeroot dpkg-buildpackage

Hope it helps
Gudjon
