That's possibly the problem, then. The Ubuntu package is putting povray
some place that megapov isn't able to find it.

You could build both povray and megapov from scratch, which is normally
as easy as ./configure, make, ./install. Or, you can check the options
for megapov's configure, and see if there is an option available that
will let you set the path to the povray executable.
