I agree with latex-cjk-all Interesting suggestions. But I consider rests are not so critical since these are recommends (not depends). You can install texlive packages without these changes. I really do not understand maze of packages around latex and gs latex-cjk-japanese-wadalab gsfonts-wadalab-* gs-cjk-resource latex-cjk-* Are they consistently organized. These font issues are really out of my understanding now.

Are you > sure that gs-esp is still the preferred alternative? Now gs-gpl is newer == yes. CUPS (gimp-print/gutenprint) support via ijs seems to be supported by both now. But Debian package cupsys depends only on es-esp. There are more supported devices (mostly old HW) by gs-esp as I see. Oh, there are extra font path to cups with gs-esp. So I still use gs-esp as my primary gs and I assume most system installs gs-esp unless cupsys changes its depends line. Thus gs-esp is the primary choice. I may upload some fix now but it will be conservative one. Osamu
