A colleague of mine tried to install POVRAY on a Corel linux system. He
fetched the package from Debian and look what happened:

LOGSCRIPT:
# more /etc/issue 
Corel LINUX 1.0 (\l)

# apt-get install povray
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
  libpvm3 cpp zlib1g-dev zlib1g libc6-dev libc6 binutils ldso 
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  timezones g++ libreadlineg2-dev libncurses4-dbg libstdc++2.9-dev
  libncurses4-dev gcc egcc 
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  libpvm3 povray 
7 packages upgraded, 2 newly installed, 8 to remove and 282 not
upgraded.
Need to get 5376kB of archives. After unpacking 8014kB will be
freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

----

Any idea why timezones, g++, libreadlineg2-dev, libncurses4-dbg,
libstdc++2.9-dev, libncurses4-dev, gcc and egcchave have been removed?  
:-)
