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.
...

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

Well, no ;-)
There still isn't any ./configure script.

Do you get any errors? Does it look like it's doing anything? There
are hundreds of lines output from ./prebuild.sh .
It is difficult to diagnose your problem based on
" Well, no ;-) "
I see:
$ wget https://github.com/POV-Ray/povray/archive/v3.7.0.0.tar.gz
$ tar -xvzf v3.7.0.0.tar.gz
$ cd povray-3.7.0.0/unix/
$ ./prebuild.sh
$ cd ..
$ ls
aclocal.m4 configure ini povray.1 scripts
AUTHORS configure.ac INSTALL povray.conf source
bootstrap COPYING kde_install.sh povray.ini.in unix
ChangeLog distribution libraries README VERSION
changes.txt doc LICENSE README.md vfe
config.h.in icons Makefile.am revision.txt windows
config.log include NEWS scenes
$ ./configure COMPILED_BY="Dick Balaska <dic### [at] buckosoft com>"
...
Jr would know for sure, but if you are using a recent Slackware you may
want to use v3.7.0.7
(Ubuntu 18 has build issues with 3.7.0.0 but works fine with 3.7.0.7)

You obviously didn't get the "cancel msg"-Message - the posting you're
referring to has been deleted just a few seconds after I sent it (after
having realized that I switched to a wrong virtual screen prior to sending).
So, no more configure problem.
A new one instead: It seems I'll have to find and install boost.
Regards,
Gregor
