I changed the encoding to ISO 8859-1, and the error disappeared. But now 
I have another problem: regardless of however I edit povray.conf, I 
always get

Parse Error: Reading from 
'/media/Raytracing/Povscn/PoVSolar/solarsys/mercury_na
sa_6132x3066_bright.png' is not permitted.  Check the configuration in
  '/home/yadgar/.povray/3.6/povray.conf'.

The I/O restriction section in povray.conf looks this way:

[File I/O Security]
none       ; all read and write operations on files are allowed.
;read-only  ; uses the "read+write" directories for writing (see below).
;restricted  ; uses _only_ "read" and "read+write" directories for file 
I/O.

Even after adding an additional

read+write* = /media/Raytracing/Povscn/PoVSolar/

the error doesn't disappear!

See you in Khyberspace!
