No OpenEXR lib installed on my system.

I also think that the “unofficial” version compiled by Yvo does not take 
into account the exr. The Mac version does not accurately reflect the 
official versions of Povray nor is it a "linux version".

And effectively, there is the same issue with version 3.7 (r4 in my case).




Thank you for your help, Richard.
