Package: povray
Version: 1:3.6.1-6
Severity: normal

Building the source package currently uses the --enable-debug configure
option that lets povray track memory access/leaks at runtime.  In some
cases (e.g. when a parse error occurs) povray may write a ./Memory.log
file that can grow quite large.  Moreover, this memory tracing feature
is likely to slow down the program execution.

Fix: do not use --enable-debug at built time.

(if -g is still needed for some reason, one can pass it to C(XX)FLAGS)
