POV-Ray

Description

The Persistence of Vision Raytracer is a high-quality, totally free tool for creating stunning three-dimensional graphics.

The license of povray is quite complicated, more information can be found at:

The POV-Ray binary is available in three different flavors:

  • povray - the generic binary, should run on any platform with AIX5L 5.1 and higher
  • povray-p5 - specially tuned version for POWER5 processors
  • povray-p6 - specially tuned version for POWER6 processors

Notes:

  • POV-Ray is C++ code and could only be compiled with GCC, therefore dependencies on GCC runtime libraries (libgcc_s.a and libstdc++.a) exist.
  • If you get the following error message and you can not start povray
        exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program povray because of the following errors:
                0509-150   Dependent module libstdc++.a(libstdc++.so.6) could not be loaded.
                0509-022 Cannot load module libstdc++.a(libstdc++.so.6).
                0509-026 System error: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
    
    or
        exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program povray because of the following errors:
                0509-150   Dependent module libgcc_s.a(shr.o) could not be loaded.
                0509-022 Cannot load module libgcc_s.a(shr.o).
                0509-026 System error: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
    

    then you need to add the following links:
        cd /opt/freeware/lib
        ln -s /opt/freeware/lib/gcc/<HOST>/<VERSION>/libstdc++.a
        ln -s /opt/freeware/lib/gcc/<HOST>/<VERSION>/libgcc_s.a
    

    where <HOST>=powerpc-ibm-aix5.1.0.0 or higher version and <VERSION>=4.2.3 (your installed GCC version).
  • The older C-based version 3.1g is also provided and both versions can be installed at the same time.
