Package: ghostscript
Version: 8.62.dfsg.1-2
Severity: normal
Hi,
according to /var/lib/dpkg/info/ghostscript.postinst ps2pdf is supposed
to be an alternative:
# /usr/bin/ps2pdf is now controlled by update-alternatives
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/ps2pdf \
ps2pdf /usr/bin/ps2pdf14 50
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/ps2pdf \
ps2pdf /usr/bin/ps2pdf12 30
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/ps2pdf \
ps2pdf /usr/bin/ps2pdf13 40
However on my system, /usr/bin/ps2pdf is a script instead of a symlink:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 315 2008-03-12 19:03 /usr/bin/ps2pdf
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 260 2008-03-12 19:03 /usr/bin/ps2pdf12

Closes: 475817
Changes:
ghostscript (8.64~dfsg-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream release.
* Drop patches 13, 21-22, 24-32 and 34-70: applied upstream now.
* Drop patch 03 and simplify configure options: upstream supports
libpaper now.
* Drop patch 20: unneeded for recent ghostscript (see upstream r9430).
* Disable patches 11-12 (CJKV): cannot apply - needs code changes.
* Unfuzz patches 01-02.
* Add new patch 71 to install CJK example files.
* Add new patch 72 enhancing ps2pdf manpage to also mention ps2pdf14
(both original and german translation).
* Add README.source referencing quilt, svn-buildpackage and CDBS
documentation.
* Mention stripped Resource/Font directory in debian/copyright, and
rephrase related section for (hopefully) improved readability.
* Use local CDBS snippet upstream-tarball to implement get-orig-source
and more. Update README.source to document its use.
* ps2pdf alternatives handling dropped in preinst of ghostscript and
gs-common: ps2pdf is provided upstream as a script. Closes:
bug#475817.
* Add symlink for german manpage of ps2pdf to ps2pdf14.
* Fix bashisms in ghostscript prerm, thanks to lintian.
