Please note the proposed "fix" for #348399 released in 1:3.6.1-4 (and
that is
also the cause of bug #396910) is definitely wrong.
POV-Ray's configure (since version 3.6) tries to set the best
optimizations for
the build architecture by default. As Debian's build was apparently
prepared on
a SSE2-compatible machine (presumably an Intel Pentium 4), the configure
script
enabled those optimizations. However, to generate an i386-compatible
binary,
it is possible to (a) disable configure choices and (b) pass it
alternate flags
for compiling. All these are described in the INSTALL file of the official
source distribution of POV-Ray 3.6.x. Therefore the patch submitted in
#348399
should be reverted in order to properly fix this bug as well as #396910.
Hint: ./configure COMPILED_BY=Debian_blurb --disable-optimiz
CXXFLAGS="-march=i386"
You may also have a look at the following patch that improves the build
system
in the POV-Ray 3.6 series: http://pov4grasp.free.fr/patches/3.6/#config

above)
