You're doing this for Sun Solaris right?
You should not need to do anything fancy with LD_LIBRARY_PATH. That will
only help you during runtime if your libraries are in strange non-standard
places. The simple thing to do is :
1 ) go get the source code for the latest jpeg libs, and get png and zlib
and tiff while you're at it. Compile them all in a directory called
povray-3.50c/src/lib/png povray-3.50c/src/lib/jpeg etc etc. Then ensure
that the linker knows where these guys are with the correct linker
option like -R~foo/povray-3.50c/src/lib/bar
2 ) Go to http://www.blastwave.org and get the complete package for Solaris.
Unless you have the Forte 6 Update 2 compiler set and all the slick
development tools then your home-built version of POV-Ray will never be
particularly fast. It has been well demonstrated in the past that gcc
just simply can not create binaries that are as effectively optimized
as the Sun/Forte compilers.
