Hello, ghostscript-9.02 was released a month ago, there is a hope it will fix some of long-standing bugs. So, please, update in portage.
While there are already separate bugs about it, I think it's a good point for revisiting the issue of adding ghostpdl to portage (while the site wasn't updated, it's on 9.02 too).
1. Replace the current cups-filters.patch in patchset with new one from Fedora: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=ghostscript.git;a=blob;f=ghostscript-cups-filters.patch;hb=HEAD 2. Insert new 'dbus' communication support in the ebuild: --- ghostscript-gpl-9.01.ebuild 2011-03-27 15:19:15.000000000 +0300 +++ ghostscript-gpl-9.02.ebuild 2011-05-08 17:32:10.000000000 +0300 @@ -18,7 +18,7 @@ LICENSE="GPL-3 CPL-1.0" SLOT="0" KEYWORDS="~alpha ~amd64 ~arm ~hppa ~ia64 ~mips ~ppc ~ppc64 ~s390 ~sh ~sparc ~x86 ~sparc-fbsd ~x86-fbsd" -IUSE="bindist cups djvu gtk idn jpeg2k X" +IUSE="bindist cups dbus djvu gtk idn jpeg2k X" COMMON_DEPEND="app-text/libpaper media-libs/freetype:2 @@ -29,6 +29,7 @@ >=sys-libs/zlib-1.2.3 !bindist?
