Bug#294491: Bug#294495: ITA: povray-3.5 -- Persistence of vision raytracer (3D renderer)

[Clément Stenac <zorglub@diwi.org>]

Hello,

Since the ITA, there has been quite some problems with this package,
mainly the fact that we had very high delays (like 3 months) with the
alioth project and SVN, and that Joel, who would have sponsored the
packages didn't really answer.

However, packages for povray-3.6 have been ready for quite some time (they
need a rebuild now), and I will upload them ASAP.

As alioth didn't answer, the packages are currently hosted at :
https://svn.diwi.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/packages/povray/?root=debian

We decided (but of course, that can change) to keep the povray dummy
package at the moment, and make it depend on -3.6 | -3.5, so that manual
installation of -3.6 is required, because there has been reports of
incompatibilities of some scenes.

The other solution would be to package povray 3.6 as "povray"

Regards,
