>Description:
During package building, in which the majority of the world is set to read-only, graphics/povray36 failed to install with the following errors:

Copying user configuration and INI files...
mkdir /root/.povray
mkdir: /root/.povray: Read-only file system
mkdir /root/.povray/3.6
mkdir: /root/.povray: No such file or directory
install: /root/.povray/3.6/povray.conf: No such file or directory
install: /root/.povray/3.6/povray.ini: No such file or directory
gmake[2]: *** [install-data-local] Error 71
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/wrkdirs/graphics/povray36/work/povray-3.6.1'
gmake[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/wrkdirs/graphics/povray36/work/povray-3.6.1'
gmake: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
*** Error code 2


First, a package should not be installing in specific user home directories
secondly, these files are not on pkg-plist
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
I suggest patching the povray36 make to avoid installing these files.
