Hi!

The other alternatives do not implement the whole driver set required by cups ppds... For example gdi printers.

It causes problems that the default virtual/ghostscript is for app-text/ghostscript-gpl.
So for cups I think it is best if you explicit depend on the right ghostscript.

Regards,

jakub: Why the same bug?
Why not fix the dependency?
