First run prebuild.sh from the unix folder and then all will be clear ;-)

Hi there!

I'm new to Slackware and for me building things from source is some kind of revival - I used to build almost any kind of software since mid 90's.

So I'm not /that/ new to reading tons of docs, READMEs and whatever comes in my way.

But I need some help with building pov 3.7.0.0.

unix/install.txt tells me to run the usual configure and make commands. But where is that configure script for povray?

TIA

Gregor

PS: unix/install.txt:

...

Compiling and installing POV-Ray from sources is achieved by running the

usual 'configure' and 'make' commands.  For a system-wide installation:

   ./configure COMPILED_BY="name <email@address or website>" [options]

   make check

   sudo make install

The COMPILED_BY argument to 'configure' is mandatory and must be filled

with your name and/or organization so that the generated binary can be

differentiated from official POV-Ray builds.
