News items in English: http://lxer.com/module/newswire/view/63031/index.html News items in German: http://www.golem.de/0606/45942.html http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/74347 It remains to be seen what implications this will have w/ regards to the other forks (merges would be great), but I guess it should be in Portage (quite a jump from 8.16 to 8.54). The latest release v8.54 under GPL (gpl-ghostscript) is already on SF. jakub@gentoo.org 2006-06-20 03:09:45 0000 Well, so... what to go w/ this ebuild? Merge ghostscript-afpl w/ gnostscript-gnu? Better ideas? Otherwise, this will get really confusing. genstef@gentoo.org 2006-06-20 03:21:01 0000 ok, the plan is: - mark ghostscript-afpl-8.54-r1 stable, so that I only have to migrate the latest version. - move ghostscript-afpl-8.54-r1 to ghostscript-gpl-8.54-r1 and change the tarball source as well as the license - make ghsotscript-gpl the default for virtual/ghostscript we then have: ghostscript-esp - with special patches for cups support, but old. ghostscript-gnu - made by the GNU people with special GPL patches that cannot be made afpl. Lacking behind a lot lately ghostscript-gpl - the latest -afpl release rereleased under the GPL, this is what would be preferred. ernst.rohlicek@inode.at 2006-06-20 04:52:09 0000 (In reply to comment #1) > Well, so... what to go w/ this ebuild?

Anyway, what Stefan suggests (comment #3) is a good idea; ghostscript-afpl should definitely be phased out. Thanks for your quick reply. cryos@gentoo.org 2006-06-25 04:17:34 0000 Stable on amd64, this is the most stable version I have used on my amd64 boxes and it is great to see their move to GPL the source. Stable on amd64 :) dertobi123@gentoo.org 2006-06-25 07:15:47 0000 ppc stable tsunam@gentoo.org 2006-06-26 20:13:52 0000 x86 done ^.^ genstef@gentoo.org 2006-06-27 01:19:56 0000 This is now really fixed :) I moved it to -gpl and changed the license and the default in the virtual, thanks!
