What is going on here Mr. Jack Larsen? We have had four posts of this
meesage to cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com. Were you intending to post this to
cygwin-apps or somewhere else?
Have you put this in release/ or release/XFree86? If it isn't in
release/XFree86 then you need to talk to cygwin-apps to get it approved.
cygwin-xfree is only in charge of release/XFree86.

Hi,
building the perfect ghostscript "gsview" is very simple, however
a .dll is needed. The .dll is part of ghostscript-7.05. However
its missing.
Cheers Jack

The Cygwin version of GNU Ghostscript now supports both a native
Win32 version and an X11 version for Cygwin XFree86. A single
source package is used to build both versions.
PLEASE NOTE: this release is marked as a 'test' release. After a
couple of weeks, I'll mark it as the next released version (unless,
of course, I hear about serious problems with this build.)
Three separate packages are used for Ghostscript:
* A base package, ghostscript-base, which contains the support
files necessary for both the native and X11 versions, as well
as the manual pages and documentation.
* A native package, ghostscript, which contains the native version
of Ghostscript (gs.exe), along with the corresponding scripts.
* An X11 package, ghostscript-x11, which contains the X11 version
of Ghostscript (gs.exe) and scripts.
Both binary versions use the libpng and zlib shared libraries.
