Package: povray
Version: 3.6.1
Severity: normal

Hello,

Find attached a very basic patch aimed at fixing bug #501591 and #501592. Those 
two bugs are related to the very same paragraph in the broken man page. The 
attached patch is then fixing those two.

Feel free to forward this patch upstream should this be necessary.

Best Regards

Olivier.
