Package: povray
Version: 3.50c-2
Severity: grave
The 3.50-based uploads do not compile on 64-bit archs (or at least alpha),
mostly due to a multitude of assumptions that 'long' is 32 bits (alpha
longs are 64-bit, as they are on most other 64-bit archs). In
src/frame.h, upstream goes so far as to (incorrectly) typedef int32 as a
signed long, but since the type is not really used at all in the source,
simply changing these types doesn't help.
I could fix this, but it would take an inordinate amount of time as I'm
not that familiar with the povray code anymore.
