Red Hat 7.3, POV-Ray 3.1g, using POV-Ray on and off for
about five years, still quite a newbie.

Every version from DkbTrace 2.x on AIX in 1982, to POVRAY 3.5 on Linux
compiled from source.

Current versions : POV3.5, MegaPov : Mandrake 9.0  & Gentoo 1.3

Preference : Source distribution with a good .configure script
so the user can decide where the package will go and how
it is compiled, i.e. with/without graphics.

If you "have" to make a rpm version, please make sure
it installs in /usr/local 

What do you mean by "support", it is for the executable only,
or also for the scripts to compute all images and animations ?

I am running Slackware 8.1.  I have been running Linux since 1996, when I
started with Slackware 3.0.  I started with POVRay 3.1 for Linux, and am
now running POV-Ray 3.5c for Linux.
