I've just did the same checks!
And I am as curious as you to find out whether this package should
Suggest or Recommend povray...
I hope some volunteers to install it and check, so that a serious bug
can be filed against kpovmodeler, if necessary...
Personally, I lack knowledge about povray and similar 3D renderers: as a
consequence I don't feel qualified to determine by myself whether
* kpovmodeler works perfectly without povray,
* kpovmodeler doesn't work because it needs povray (which is not
installed), or
* kpovmodeler doesn't seem to work, because I have no clue and don't
know how to actually use it... ;-)
So, in conclusion, any volunteers?
