I have just tried to rebuild popa3d using your recommended settings above,
and get a syntax error message.

What I did, in addition to changing the values in the 2 lines, is uncomment
each line by removing the '#' sign at the beginning of each of the 2 lines.
Should I have kept it ? Any idea what else could be causing the problem ?

Thanks.
