   * New upstream release.
   * Strip unneeded subdirs zlib, jasper, libpng to simplify build and
     licensing tracking.

   * Bump main license to GPL-3+ (from GPL-2+) in debian/copyright.
   * Fix licensing of escv driver (GPL), and bump copyright year.

ghostscript (8.64~dfsg-13) unstable; urgency=low

   * Fix ghostscript-cups to recommend (not depend on) cups and
     cups-client: avoid circular dependencies for cups backends truly
     depending on both cups and this package.

 -- Jonas Smedegaard <dr@jones.dk>  Sat, 11 Jul 2009 22:32:38 +0200

ghostscript (8.64~dfsg-12) unstable; urgency=high

   * Drop inclusion of symbols.common_le for mips, add it for mipsel.
     Really really closes: bug#533771, thanks to Mattias Ellert.
   * Keep urgency=high - still contains security-related urgently needed
     for testing.

 -- Jonas Smedegaard <dr@jones.dk>  Tue, 23 Jun 2009 11:28:02 +0200

ghostscript (8.64~dfsg-11) unstable; urgency=high

   * Stop registering symbols.common_le for hppa and mipsel (apparently
     those symbols aren't simply tied to little-endian archs after all).
     Closes: bug#533771, thanks to Kurt Roeckx.
   * Set urgency=high as above affects only build-routines (not actual
     contents of built binaries), no other release blockers occured for 9
     days, and older releases contain security-related bugfixes.

 -- Jonas Smedegaard <dr@jones.dk>  Sat, 20 Jun 2009 16:36:58 +0200

ghostscript (8.64~dfsg-10) unstable; urgency=low

 -- Masayuki Hatta (mhatta) <mhatta@debian.org>  Sun, 04 Jan 2009 12:09:59 +0900

ghostscript (8.63.dfsg.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

   [Masayuki Hatta]
   * Maintainer upload, New upstream release.
   * Acknowledged NMUs, thanks tv - closes: #472645, #495703, #503712
   * debian/patches/32_improve-handling-of-media-size-changes-from-gv.dpatch:
     Allow gv to change the image and media size (Upstream bug #688943)
     - closes: #142228
   * debian/patches/33_bad-params-to-xinitimage-on-large-bitmaps.dpatch:
     Fixed zooming problem in gv (Upstream bug #689547)
     - closes: #419183
   * debian/patches//34_ftbfs-on-hurd-fix.dpatch:
     Fixed FTBFS on hurd-i386 - closes: #475704
   * Added Homepage, Vcs-Svn and Vcs-Browser headers in control.
   * Sync'd with the Ubuntu 8.63.dfsg.1-0ubuntu13.
 
   [Till Kamppeter]
   * debian/libgs8.shlibs: Removed. All libgs8 versions should have the same
     API and ABI. The artificial restriction set by this file required all
     reverse dependencies to be rebuilt for every stable release of Ghostscript.
   * debian/patches/35_disable_libcairo.dpatch: Added possibility to
     compile Ghostscript without the "cairo" output device. The device
     is still in experimental state and with its dependency on libcairo
     it pulls in a dependency on X.
   * debian/control, debian/rules: Build Ghostscript without the "cairo"
     output device.
   * debian/patches/38_pxl-duplex.dpatch: The Duplex option of the "pxlmono"
     and "pxlcolor" drivers did not work.
   * debian/patches/39_pxl-resolution.dpatch: The resolution must be also set
     as PJL command for the "pxlmono" and "pxlcolor" drivers.
   * debian/patches/42_gs-init-ps-delaybind-fix.dpatch: Make "ps2ascii" working
     again (Upstream bug #690124) - closes: #81430, #229748, #131528
   * debian/patches/45_bjc600-bjc800-pdf-input.dpatch: Fix setting of the
     "DitheringType" option. With PDF input Ghostscript crashes, with
     PostScript input the "DitheringType" option was probably ignored
     (Upstream bug #690032).
   * debian/patches/48_cups-output-device-pdf-duplex-uninitialized-memory.patch.dpatch:
     Fixed several bugs in the "cups" (CUPS Raster) output device:
      - Ghostscript crashed with PDF input data
      - The "Duplex" and "MediaWeight" options were ignored
      - There was uninitialized memory and wrong usage of pointers, potential
        cause for segmentation faults or even vulnerabilities
      - There were mismatches in data types, leading to possible breakage
        of the "AdvanceDistance", "MediaWeight", and "cupsStringXX" options.
     (Upstream bug #690101).
   * debian/local/pdftoraster/pdftoraster.c,
     debian/local/pdftoraster/pdftoraster.convs, debian/rules: Added pdftoraster
     filter from the Ghostscript SVN repository - closes: #505282
   * debian/patches/50_lips4-floating-point-exception: Fixed floating-point
     exception in "lips4" and other drivers (Upstream bug #690122).
   * debian/patches/52_cups-device-logging.dpatch: Made logging of the "cups"
     output device much less verbose. The log of one jub in debug mode did not
     fit into the maximum log file size of CUPS.
   * debian/patches/55_pcl-input-slot-fix.dpatch: Made the paper tray selection
     via "-dMediaPosition=..." in the PCL 4/5/5e drivers work (Upstream bug
     #690182).
   * debian/patches/57_pxl-input-slot-fix.dpatch: Made the paper tray selection
     via "-dMediaPosition=..." in the PCL 6/XL drivers work.
   * debian/patches/60_pxl-cups-driver-pdf.dpatch: Made the PCL-XL CUPS filter
     and PPDs work with PDF input.
   * debian/patches/62_onebitcmyk-pdf.dpatch: Check the whole Decode array to
     detect special cases of identity and inverse decoding in PDF files
     (Upstream bug #690178).
   * debian/ghostscript.postinst: Added automatic update of the PPD files
     of already existing print queues.
   * debian/ghostscript.postinst: Do not try to update the PPDs of existing
     print queues if CUPS is not installed or not running.
   * debian/patches/60_pxl-cups-driver-pdf.dpatch: The pstopxl filter did not
     remove its temporary file after finishing.
   * debian/patches/65_too-big-temp-files-1.dpatch: Ghostscript produced much
     too big temporary files (> 10 GB) when printing photos from GNOME apps in
     1200 dpi. Part 1 of the fix which reduces the temp file size to less than
     2 GB (Upstream bug #690133).
   * debian/patches/67_too-big-temp-files-2.dpatch: Complete fix for the too big
     temporary files. Now the bug is completely fixed. Temp files are not much
     bigger than the jobs themselves now (Upstream bug #690133).
   * debian/patches/70_take-into-account-data-in-stream-buffer-before-refill.dpatch:
     Certain files lead to a Ghostscript error due to wrong handling of the
     stream buffer (Upstream bug #690090).

   [Masayuki Hatta]
 
   * New upstream release.
   * Now pdf2dsc can handle PageLabels properly - closes: #266166
   * Bumped up Standards-Version to 3.7.3 (no physical changes).
   * NEWS, README.Debian, copyright: Revised.
   * NEWS: Fixed wrong version number - closes: #454514, #454515
   * Sorted out dpatches:
     01-09: Debian-specific patches
     10-19: Bigger 3rd party patches (KRGB & CJKV)
     20-: Temporary bug fixes (should be incorporated into the upstream)
   * debian/patches/29_gs_css_fix.dpatch: Fixes a syntax error in gs.css
     - closes: #457118
   * debian/patches/30_ps2pdf_man_improvement.dpatch: Improved manpages for
     ps2pdf - closes: #193461
 
   [Till Kamppeter]
 
   * debian/patches/09_ijs_krgb_support.dpatch: Adapted to upstream changes.
   * debian/rules: Updated CUPS-related variables for "make install" calls.
   * debian/rules: Remove /usr/include/ghostscript from the ghostscript
     package, they go into libgs-dev.
   * debian/patches/40_cups_filters_with_buffered_input.dpatch: Modified
     cups/psto* filters to let Ghostscript always use buffered input. This
     works around a Ghostscript bug which prevents printing encrypted PDF
     files with Adobe Reader 8.1.1 and Ghostscript built as shared library
     (Ghostscript bug #689577, Ubuntu bug LP: #172264)
   * debian/patches/42_print_encrypted_PDFs_from_adobe_reader_8.dpatch:
     Fixed printing of encrypted PDF files from Adobe Reader 8.1.1.  This
     is the real fix now and not only a workaround. (Ghostscript bug
     #689577, Ubuntu bug LP: #172264).

ghostscript (8.61.dfsg.1~svn8187-2.1) unstable; urgency=low

   * Non-maintainer upload.
   * Fix long-standing implicit pointer conversions by backporting a fix from
     SVN revision 8232, as pointed by Dann Frazier (Closes: #422723):
      - 40_implicit_pointer_conversion_fix.dpatch added for this purpose. It
        also contains an additional tweak for src/gpmisc.c so that no attempt
        to use fdopen64() is made, fdopen() is the way to go. That tweak also
        solves the FTBFS on GNU/kFreeBSD (Closes: #430337).
      - DEB_AUTO_UPDATE_AUTOCONF set to “yes” in debian/rules so that the
        configure script gets updated at build time (the needed build
        dependencies are already there).

ghostscript (8.61.dfsg.1~svn8187-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Maintainer upload, acknowledged NMU - closes: #447188
   * Made all dummy packages depend on ghostscript AND ghostscript-x, so
     their nominal "functionality" should virtually be the equivalent to
     the former gs|gs-gpl|gs-esp|gs-afpl packages - closes: #446825
   * Revised debian/copyright - closes: #444468, #444467
   * debian/rules: Clean files from package ghostscript which are moved to
     ghostscript-doc on i386 (where arch-all packages are built). On all
     non-i386 platforms the files remained in the main package, which
     causes file conflicts and unnecessary package growth - closes: #446927
     (fix from Ubuntu)
   * debian/patches/06_libpaper_support.dpatch: Added missing "#include
     <paper.h>", this made Ghostscript not working at all on IA64 - closes:
     #428055 (fix from Ubuntu)

ghostscript (8.61.dfsg.1~svn8187-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream release - closes: #437848, #291452
   * Important CJK handling fixes are absent from the current 8.60 or SVN, so I
     decided to use this SVN snapshots until the issue is fixed (Ubuntu does the same).
   * Can be built with the modern GCC now - closes: #440427
   * Complete re-organization: gs-gpl, gs-esp and gs-afpl are discontinued and
     gone altogether, and now there's only one ghostscript package - closes: #52603, #159516, #434791, #394628, #394350, #295377, #246983, #416253, #323867
   * Imported Ubuntu's various improvements on packaging.
     Thanks for Ubuntu people, especially Till Kamppeter.
   * Sorted out dummy packages - closes: #321989, #401137
   * Separated -doc package - closes: #138549, #391082, #389872
   * Separated -x package, the main ghostscrpt doesn't depend X anymore - cloese: #76814, #393980, #240215
   * Separated libgs* packages - closes: #344351
   * Enabled cdj880 driver - closes: #157067

     "transparent" copies a la GFDL.

ghostscript (8.61.dfsg.1~svn8187-0ubuntu4) hardy; urgency=low

   * debian/rules: Clean /usr/share/doc/*.html files from package
     'ghostscript', too (incomplete fix in previous versions), since they are
     already shipped in ghostscript-doc and thus have a file conflict.
     (LP: #153218)

ghostscript (8.61.dfsg.1~svn8187-0ubuntu3) gutsy; urgency=low

   [ Till Kamppeter ]
   * debian/rules: Install missing *.upp files (usptream bug, LP: #150985).
 
   [ Martin Pitt ]
   * debian/rules: Clean files from package ghostscript which are moved to
     ghostscript-doc on i386 (where arch-all packages are built). On all
     non-i386 platforms the files remained in the main package, which causes
     file conflicts and unnecessary package growth. This is a quick hack for
     Gutsy. In Hardy, this horribly broken build system should be fixed
     properly.

ghostscript (8.61.dfsg.1~svn8187-0ubuntu1) gutsy; urgency=low

   * New upstream release
     o SVN snapshot rev 8187
     o CJK patches from Koji Otani to fix several issues with CJK text
       (should fix http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=689304).
       These patches were also applied to ESP Ghostscript and having them
       in Gutsy's GPL GS will avoide regressions against Feisty's ESP GS.
     o Minor bug fixes from upstream.

   * New upstream release
     o SVN snapshot rev 7997, branch "gs-esp-gpl-merger"
     o Added functionality to compile with shared libgs and without GTK
       via "--disable-gtk" configure option (feature overtaken from ESP

     o Minor bug fixes from upstream.
   * debian/patches/40_fix_imdi_patch.dpatch: Removed, fixed upstream.

   * debian/rules: Added forgotten option "--disable-gtk" to the "./configure"
     command line, this prevented ghostscript from building on the build
     servers.
   * Added missing version number to "Conflicts: gs-common" in the ghostscript
     package.
   * Do away with the update-alternatives, we have one grand unified Ghostscript
     now!

ghostscript (8.60.dfsg.1-0ubuntu1) gutsy; urgency=low

   * This is the first Debian/Ubuntu package reflecting Artifex' move to do
     the head development of Ghostscript under GPL and the merger of ESP
     Ghostscript into GPL Ghostscript which followed after that.
   * Renamed from "gs-gpl" to "ghostscript" on agreement with Debian Ghostscript
     maintainer Masayuki Hatta
   * New upstream release
     o SVN snapshot rev 7979, branch "gs-esp-gpl-merger"
     o This is the head of the Ghostscript development now. There is no separate
       AFPL Ghostscript any more. See http://www.ghostscript.com/awki/News.
     o All extra functionality of ESP Ghostscript is merged into GPL
       Ghostscript now and the development of ESP Ghostscript is discontinued.
       See http://www.cups.org/espgs/.
   * debian/control: Added tags and transitional packages to make this package
     (ghostscript) replacing gs-esp and gs-afpl (Closes: LP#47432, LP#47458,
     LP#75894, LP#83769, LP#103595, LP#105752, LP#108159, LP#109304).
   * debian/rules, debian/control, debian/dirs, debian/ghostscript.*,
     debian/README.Debian, debian/gs.defoma: Merged in gs-common.
   * debian/control: Set Ubuntu maintainer.
   * debian/rules: Activated full functionality by appropriate "./configure"
     command line options. This is now the one and only Ghostscript in Ubuntu
     Linux.
   * debian/rules: Do not build static executable, to reduce the build time
     to one half of the former build time of gs-esp (or to not double the
     build time of ghostscript).
   * debian/rules, debian/control: Split package into ghostscript, libgs8,
     libgs-dev, and ghostscript-x, like we did with gs-esp, also split off
     documentation into ghostcript-doc.
   * debian/NEWS: Added info about merger of ESP and GPL Ghostscript
   * debian/patches/: Removed 01_gsdir_for_gs-gpl.dpatch,
     02_fontpath_for_debian, 20_additional_drivers, 21_additional_drivers_mak,
     22_gdi_support, 23_hl12x0_support: They are not needed any more after
     merging in the ESP GS functionality and moving to "ghostscript" as
     package name.
   * debian/patches/09_ijs_krgb_support.dpatch: Updated to version 1.3
     of the KRGB patch (from HPLIP 1.7.3).
   * debian/patches/04_gdevxini_segv_fix.dpatch: Removed, it makes the X
     device being reopened on every page size change and breaks output with
     tools like gv (gv hangs without showing any page).
   * debian/patches/40_fix_imdi_patch.dpatch: Fixed imdi directory location
     in src/devs.mak
   * debian/patches/50_gv_kghostview_compatibility.dpatch: Fixed compatibility
     with GUIs like gv and kghostview (see upstream bug 689237,
     http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=689237, note: reintroduces
     upstream bug 687125 but that bug is much less a problem).
   * debian/ghostscript.postinst: update-alternatives configuration does not get
     correctly updated when the obsolete gs-esp and gs-afpl packages get removed
     via the transitional packages. Let the post-install script of the
     ghostscript package reset update-alternatives to auto mode for such a case.

   * Now uses cidfmap generated by defoma.
   * gs-gpl.links: make a symlink of CMap directory under /usr/share/gs-gpl/8.15/Resource.
     NOTE: even if CMap files can be found somewhere in the font path, gs-esp
     fails to prepare a composed font with CIDFont and CMap. This hack is
     a workaround for "the CMap files must be put into the first directory of
     the font path" problem.  Many Thanks Akira TAGOH for suggestion.

gs (6.53-3) unstable; urgency=high

   * debian/copyright: Include information about add on packages and
     their licenses.
 
   * debian/devices: Move x11 in front of x11alpha which has problems with
     mono displays at least (closes: #138844).
   * src/unix-gcc.mak: Reenable the pipe device as it seems harmless after
     all and many filters will break as they are using this feature to
     circumvent the old Ghostscript problem with -sOutputFile=- when
     the PostScript file writes text to stdout which interferes with the
     printer commands... (closes: #138364).
   * debian/control: Remove the reference to gs-pdfencrypt which is now
     obsolete as it is included in the official Ghostscript now.
 
   * Lintian cleanup:
     + Remove the extra license file /usr/share/doc/gs/COPYING.gz
     + Copying.htm stays as it is since it is linked in the docs
     + Convert History[56].htm to changes.gz using html2text to have an
       upstream changelog.
   * Included a few important patches from the Ghostscript CVS:
     + Handle the margins from an ijs server correctly. It was my hope that
       this would account for #141608, but that does not seem to be the
       case :(
     + src/gdevx.c: Patched to use the "right" color depth on X11 for
       all cases. It used to take the actual number of bits to store
       the color info as opposed to the number of bits actually used.
     + lib/pdf2dsc.ps: This was broken because of the security fix.
       Patched to open the files before dropping privileges.
 
   * lib/stcolor.ps: Compare the product name with "GNU Ghostscript" instead
     of just "Ghostscript" to detect the interpreter (closes: #108120).
   * src/gdevbj10.c: Apply the patch to fix the margins for the Canon BJ10e
     submitted by Jim Hague (closes: #118078).
   * debian/postinst: Link the manpage to gs.1.gz as well as a slave of
     the /usr/bin/gs alternative (closes: #122538).
   * gimp-print/README.stp: Copy from gimp-print source tree.
   * debian/docs: Install that file as $(docdir)/README.stp for those
     using that driver and needing some infos (closes: #122099).
     + debian/README.Debian: Refer the user to README.stp.
   * debian/rules: Install the documentation of the pcl3 driver
     (closes: #39342).
   * debian/docs: Add the README.lexmark of the lexmarkgs driver to the
     installed documentation.

     how to check that it works? I am more than deeply frustrated with
     getting readmes in japanese, web pages in japanese etc. That's just

gs (6.51-7) unstable; urgency=medium

   * Urgency medium because it works around a bug breaking the package
     on one Debian architecture.
   * src/gxobj.h [IA64]: Lock the object alignment to 16 bytes, as the
     initial setjmp segfaults because of a bad alignment. jmp_buf needs
     to be on 16 byte boundaries for this arch. This is a quick work
     around until somebody comes up with a better fix - at least it
     gets gs to work on ia64 - I am not certain how much memory overhead
     this causes though. Kudos to John Daily <jdaily@progeny.com> for his
     investigative work. I am leaving the bug open for now, since it does
     not really fix the problem (#128314).

     These bugs were fixed in Ghostscript 6.0:
     + the font rendering problem in X11 is fixed (closes: #28579)
     + ps2pdf does not write rectangles for polygons anymore (closes: #36200)
     + the PDF which crashed gs does not lead to any problems (closes: #45361)
     + a PDF which was inverted by pdf2ps stays black on
       white now (closes: #49659).
     + Philipp's file crashing gs does not do so anymore (closes: #58468)
     + the invalid LanguageGroup in fonts does not cause gs to abort
       anymore (closes: #67462).
     + another PDF file which caused a crash is working now (closes: #89995)
   * Rewrote the build system.
   * The libjpeg sources are now included in the diff which is not nice
     but working (closes: #87896).
   * lynx is not used anymore to convert the changelog to plain text
     (closes: #93722).
   * The hpijs driver is now included upstream (closes: #106294).
   * Driver support for the Apple Imagewriter is now included (closes: #110740).
   * Make the package use update-alternatives so that different gs packages
     can cooperate (closes: #98227).
   * Add in the gdi driver provided by Daniel Burrows (closes: #105885).
   * debian/devices: Add omni to the list
     + debian/gen-makefile: Add threading and dynamic linking support.
   * debian/control: Add libglib1.2-dev to the Build-Depends as it is
     needed for the Omni driver.
   * debian/devices: Go through the list of available drivers and add
     what we seem to be able to build. Among the new devices:
     - cdj970 (closes: #112434)
     - cljet5, cljet5pr, cljet5c
     - dl2100, hl7x0
     - the generic hpijs device (supports hpijs 0.97, closes: #102369, #110657)
     - imagen, inferno, jetp3852
     - lex2050, lex3200, lex5700
     - oki4w
     - plan9bm
     - psrgb
     - x11cmyk2, x11cmyk4, x11cmyk8, x11gray4
   * src/contrib.mak: Add missing generic hpijs device.
   * Enable stp driver and link with libgimpprint
     (closes: #82454, #87004, #103036)
   * debian/control: Build-Depend on libgimpprint-dev.
   * debian/gen-makefile: Add support for the DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS environment
     variable (more precisely, the debug option leads to a build with
     debugging support and exported private variables).
   * Add in the CJK support using the patch from
     Yasuhiro Take <take@debian.org>. A huge "THANK YOU" to him for his
     work!!! His changes:
     + Add debian/patches/gs-cjk-M2-R1+CJKPDF.diff & .info, and apply it
       to the source.
     + debian/control: Conflicts: Add gs-cjk-resource (<< 1.20010910-1) because
       the new gs-cjk patch requires new gs-cjk-resource that i've already
       prepared and doesn't work with older ones.
     + debian/control: Depends: Add gs-common (>= 0.2) because font
       configuration for the new gs-cjk patch is completely different from
       the old one.
   * debian/control: Removed the conflict with gs_x, gs_svga and gs_both.
     I don't even remember when those packages where in Debian, probably
     before Debian 1.3 so a direct upgrade is going to fail anyway. And
     with intermediate upgrades it will not be a problem.
   * src/imainarg.c: Reapply the papersize diff from debian/patches.

gs (5.10-1) unstable frozen; urgency=low

   * Ghostscript 5.10 is GPL!
     This package essentially corresponds to package gs-aladdin_5.10-12,
     but redistributed under GPL. Changes w.r.t. gs-aladdin_5.10-12
     are:
       * Corrected "regulamentations" --> "regulations"
         in description of package.
       * Filenames in script pdf2ps are now enclosed in double quotes
       * Fixed the manpages for bdftops, printafm and wftopfa,
         so that they work with apropos.
     The various patches to ghostscript 5.10 that have been proposed
     by L.P.Deutsch and that appear in gs-aladdin_5.10-12 also appear
     in this package.

1998

gs (4.03-6) unstable; urgency=low

   * Moved to version 2.5 of hpdj driver by Martin Lottermoser (debian/rules
     is changed accordingly).
   * Mentined package gsfonts in description of gs.

 -- Marco Pistore <pistore@di.unipi.it>  Mon, 7 Dec 1998 22:06:21 +0100

gs (4.03-5) frozen unstable; urgency=low

   * Fixed the manpages for bdftops, printafm and wftopfa,
     so that they work with apropos.
 
   * Removed *.1.gz files from /usr/doc/gs (they already are in the
     /usr/man/man1 directory).

 -- Marco Pistore <pistore@di.unipi.it>  Fri, 6 Nov 1998 10:52:31 +0100

gs (4.03-4) frozen unstable; urgency=low

   * Fixed files stcolor.ps and stcinfo.ps so that they recognize that
     they are called by GNU ghostscript; thanks to Gordon Matzigkeit
     (closes Bug#28726).

 -- Marco Pistore <pistore@di.unipi.it>  Thu, 5 Nov 1998 21:44:07 +0100

gs (4.03-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Changed "Recommends: gs-pdfencrypt" to "Suggests: gs-pdfencrypt" in
     control file (closes Bug#27431)
   * Removed "Provides: gs_x, gs_svga, gs_both", since "_" cannot appear
     in package names, and no packages should depend on these quite old
     virtual packages.
   * Changed directory name for the libjpeg source from ../libjpeg-6a
     to ../libjpeg: so it does not depend on the particular version
     of libjpeg (changes in files gcc-head.mak, debian/rules and
     debian/jpeg).
   * Linked against libjpeg-6b.

gs (4.03-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Now /usr/lib/ghostscript/common is searched for library files
     before /usr/lib/ghostscript/X.YY (where X.YY is the version of
     ghostscript). This is useful for installing packages like
     gs-pdfencrypt, that provide (modified) library files
     to ghostscript that are independent from the version of gs
     (also gs.1 is changed accordingly)
   * Now gs-pdfencrypt (in the nonUS distribution) is suggested by
     gs-aladdin. Changed the message in the file pdf_sec.ps so that
     it suggests to install that package if an encrypted pdf file is
     being processed.
   * Linked against libpng2 (closes Bug#26924)

   * Set options in gcc-head.mak
   * Added man pages for all the binaries
   * All example files in /usr/doc/gs/examples start now with %!

     (there is really no reason to put this script in /usr/bin)
   * Patched devs.mak and gdevpng.c so to work with version 0.96 of libpng.
   * Patched gdevcdj.c so that device cdeskjet works
     (and is identical to cdj500)
   * Patched gdevl256.c imainarg.c so that superuser rights are given away
     as soon as possible, and re-obtained only to start svgalib (see
     /usr/doc/gs/README.Debian and /usr/doc/gs/setuid.Debian)
   * Patched imainarg.c to set default paper accordig to the system paper
     as reported by libpaper, also patched imaiarg.c so that the lvga256
     device is chosen as the default one if gs is not called from X
   * Patched zlib.mak: here the shared file for zlib is called libz,
     not libgz

     called by the user)
