Description Steven Wilson 2004-10-26 22:08:58 UTC 
The fix to bug #60097 causes the font paths to be incorrect with earlier versions of ghostscript - earlier ghostscript versions install fonts to /usr/share/ghostscript/fonts and the xpdfrc in >= xpdf-3.00-r2 specifies fonts under /usr/share/fonts/default/ghostscript. However, there is (can be?) no dependency on the later ghostscript version.
Comment 1 Heinrich Wendel (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-11-01 05:44:51 UTC 
the problem is that we can depend on later ghostscript versions, since ghostscript is provided by a virtual, i'll remove the older ghostscript versions, so you won't longer use them
