This group is for posting binary scene files.  It is certainly the wrong
group for asking a general question about the official POV-Ray
distributions.  The group povray.general would have been correct.

Either way, the design of the scene file gaussianblob.pov is defective and
it has been removed from the official POV-Ray 3.6.1 .  I guess AMD just
updated the version to 3.6.1 from 3.6.0 or 3.5 and did not notice the file
is gone.  As far as that strange Bricks_transp.pov is concerned, either it
is a third-party file or some spell-checker butchered the file named
stackertransp.pov that seems to be missing from the list (in the document
you mentioned) containing most of the "advanced" files.

Cross-posted to povray.general, please follow-up there.
