Re: Looking for a ghostscript maintainer


Hi,

I've packaged ghostscript-8.15 and tested it (used gv on examples/*).

Some points ...
1.  This can remove the (last?) dependency on XFree86-lib-compat.
    TeXmacs "needs" lib-compat, but it is probably due to ghostscript.
    TeXmacs executable has no direct dependency on XFree86-lib-compat.

2.  I have moved the cygwin specific readme into /usr/share/doc/Cygwin
    (instead of /usr/doc/Cygwin)

3.  gs-fonts-8.11 have been upgraded from 6.0

4.  I have included the jpeg sources (as did gs-7.05)

I have used Dario's cyg-pkg script and it has made the whole process
fairly simple.  Thanks Dario.

It is about 15MB in 4 files.  Is there some space where I can upload it
to?

Regards,
rb
