|
|
- Version upgrade to 10.03.0:
|
|
|
|
|
For openSUSE and SUSE Ghostscript is built '--without-tesseract'
|
|
|
|
|
(see the entry below dated 'Mon Jul 18 07:28:54 UTC 2022').
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
See 'Recent Changes in Ghostscript' at Ghostscript upstream
|
|
|
|
|
https://ghostscript.readthedocs.io/en/gs10.03.0/News.html
|
|
|
|
|
* As of this release (10.03.0) pdfwrite creates PDF files
|
|
|
|
|
with XRef streams and ObjStm streams. This can result in
|
|
|
|
|
considerably smaller PDF output files. See Vector Devices
|
|
|
|
|
https://ghostscript.readthedocs.io/en/latest/VectorDevices.html
|
|
|
|
|
for more details.
|
|
|
|
|
* Ghostscript/pdfwrite now supports passing through
|
|
|
|
|
PDF "Optional Content".
|
|
|
|
|
* Our efforts in code hygiene and maintainability continue.
|
|
|
|
|
* The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes,
|
|
|
|
|
and incremental improvements.
|
|
|
|
|
Incompatible changes (the release is listed in parentheses):
|
|
|
|
|
* (10.03.0) Almost all the "internal" PostScript procedures
|
|
|
|
|
defined during the interpreter startup are now "executeonly",
|
|
|
|
|
further reducing the attack surface of the interpreter.
|
|
|
|
|
The nature of these procedures means there should be no impact
|
|
|
|
|
for legitimate usage, but it is possible it will impact uses
|
|
|
|
|
which abuse the previous accessibility (even for legitimate
|
|
|
|
|
reasons). Such cases may now require "DELAYBIND", See DELAYBIND
|
|
|
|
|
https://ghostscript.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Use.html#ddelaybind
|
|
|
|
|
* (10.03.0) The "makeimagedevice" non-standard operator has been
|
|
|
|
|
removed. It allowed low level access to the graphics library
|
|
|
|
|
in a way that was, essentially impossible to secure.
|
|
|
|
|
* (10.03.0) The "putdeviceprops", "getdeviceprops",
|
|
|
|
|
"finddevice", "copydevice", "findprotodevice" non-standard
|
|
|
|
|
operators have all been removed. They provided functionality
|
|
|
|
|
that is either accessible through standard operators,
|
|
|
|
|
or should not be used by user PostScript.
|
|
|
|
|
* (10.03.0) The process of "tidying" the PostScript namespace
|
|
|
|
|
should have removed only non-standard and undocumented
|
|
|
|
|
operators. Nevertheless, it is possible that any integrations
|
|
|
|
|
or utilities that rely on those non-standard and undocumented
|
|
|
|
|
operators may stop working or may change behaviour.

implementation of PDF, we will not be updating or maintaining
that code moving forward. The option to use the old PDF
implementation _**will**_ be removed in the next full release
(10.01.0)
* Important: This release includes the new PDF interpreter
(implemented in C rather than PostScript). It is both
integrated into Ghostscript (now ENABLED by default), and
available as a standalone, PDF only, binary. See
https://ghostscript.com/pdfi.html for more details.
* This also bundles the latest zlib (1.2.12) which addresses a
security issue (CVE-2018-25032)

- update to 9.56.1:
* New PDF Interpreter: This is an entirely new implementation written in C
(rather than PostScript, as before)
* Calling Ghostscript via the GS API is now thread safe. The one limitation
is that the X11 devices for Unix-like systems (x11, x11alpha, x11cmyk,
x11cmyk2, x11cmyk4, x11cmyk8, x11gray2, x11gray4 and x11mono) cannot be
made thread safe, due to their interaction with the X11 server, those
devices have been modified to only allow one instance in an executable.
* The PSD output device now writes ICC profiles to their output files, for
improved color fidelity.
* Our efforts in code hygiene and maintainability continue.
* The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes, and incremental
improvements.
* We have added the capability to build with the Tesseract OCR
engine. In such a build, new devices are available (pdfocr8/pdfocr24/
pdfocr32) which render the output file to an image, OCR that image, and
output the image "wrapped" up as a PDF file, with the OCR generated text

|
|
|
|

Mainly due to time constraints, we only support including
|
|
|
|
|
Tesseract from source included in our release packages,
|
|
|
|
|
and not linking to Tesseract/Leptonica shared libraries.
|
|
|
|
|
Whether we add this capability will be largely dependent
|
|
|
|
|
on community demand for the feature. See Enabling OCR
|
|
|
|
|
at https://www.ghostscript.com/ocr.html for more details.

Accepting request 989807 from home:dirkmueller:Factory
- update to 9.56.1:
* New PDF Interpreter: This is an entirely new implementation written in C
(rather than PostScript, as before)
* Calling Ghostscript via the GS API is now thread safe. The one limitation
is that the X11 devices for Unix-like systems (x11, x11alpha, x11cmyk,
x11cmyk2, x11cmyk4, x11cmyk8, x11gray2, x11gray4 and x11mono) cannot be
made thread safe, due to their interaction with the X11 server, those
devices have been modified to only allow one instance in an executable.
* The PSD output device now writes ICC profiles to their output files, for
improved color fidelity.
* Our efforts in code hygiene and maintainability continue.
* The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes, and incremental
improvements.
* We have added the capability to build with the Tesseract OCR
engine. In such a build, new devices are available (pdfocr8/pdfocr24/
pdfocr32) which render the output file to an image, OCR that image, and
output the image "wrapped" up as a PDF file, with the OCR generated text
information included as "invisible" text (in PDF terms, text rendering mode
3).

- Version upgrade to 9.54.0
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include
|
|
|
|
|
(excerpts from the Ghostscript upstream release summary
|
|
|
|
|
in https://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.54.0/News.htm):
|
|
|
|
|
* The 9.54.0 release is a maintenance release,
|
|
|
|
|
and also adds new functionality.
|
|
|
|
|
* Overprint simulation is now available to all output devices,
|
|
|
|
|
allowing quality previewing/proofing of PostScript and
|
|
|
|
|
PDF jobs that rely on overprint. See the -dOverprint option
|
|
|
|
|
documentation in: doc/9.54.0/Use.htm#Overprint
|
|
|
|
|
* The "docxwrite" device adds the ability to output
|
|
|
|
|
to Microsoft Word "docx" format.
|
|
|
|
|
See: doc/9.54.0/VectorDevices.htm#DOCX
|
|
|
|
|
* The pdfwrite device is now capable of using the Tesseract OCR
|
|
|
|
|
engine when it is built into Ghostscript to improve
|
|
|
|
|
searchability and copy and paste functionality when the input
|
|
|
|
|
lacks the metadata for that purpose.
|
|
|
|
|
See: doc/9.54.0/VectorDevices.htm#UseOCR
|
|
|
|
|
* Ghostscript/GhostPDL now includes a "map text to black"
|
|
|
|
|
function, where text drawn by an input job (except when drawn
|
|
|
|
|
using a Type 3 font) can be forced to draw in solid black.
|
|
|
|
|
See: doc/9.54.0/Use.htm#BlackText
|
|
|
|
|
* Ghostscript/GhostPDL now supports simple N-up imposition
|
|
|
|
|
"internally". See: doc/9.54.0/Use.htm#NupControl
|
|
|
|
|
* Our efforts in code hygiene and maintainability continue.

|
|
|
|
and incremental improvements.

- Version upgrade to 9.53.3
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include
|
|
|
|
|
(excerpts from the Ghostscript upstream release summary
|
|
|
|
|
in https://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.53.3/News.htm):
|
|
|
|
|
* The 9.53.3 release is primarily maintenance.
|
|
|
|
|
* Issues arose with 9.53.0/1/2 that prompted the release
|
|
|
|
|
of a .3 patch:
|
|
|
|
|
A crash related to management of ICC profile objects.
|
|
|
|
|
A parameter type mismatch that would cause Ghostscript
|
|
|
|
|
to error out during initialisation, which
|
|
|
|
|
affected 64 big, big endian architectures.
|
|
|
|
|
An unexpected side effect of another change that prevented
|
|
|
|
|
multithreaded rendering and background rendering
|
|
|
|
|
from working correctly.
|
|
|
|
|
* The most obvious change is the (re-)introduction of the
|
|
|
|
|
patch level to the version number, this helps facilitate
|
|
|
|
|
a revised policy on handling security related issues.
|
|
|
|
|
To clarify: in the event we decide to release a patch revision,
|
|
|
|
|
it will replace the release with the previous patch number.
|
|
|
|
|
Release notes, highlights and warnings will remain the same,
|
|
|
|
|
except for the addition of whatever fix(es) prompted the patch.
|
|
|
|
|
* Our efforts in code hygiene and maintainability continue.
|
|
|
|
|
* We have added Python bindings for the gsapi interface, can be
|
|
|
|
|
found in demos/python. These are experimental, and we welcome
|
|
|
|
|
feedback from interested developers.
|
|
|
|
|
* For those integrating Ghostscript/GhostPDL via the gsapi
|
|
|
|
|
interface, we have added new capabilities to that, specifically
|
|
|
|
|
in terms of setting and interrogating device parameters. These,
|
|
|
|
|
along with the existing interface calls, are documented in:
|
|
|
|
|

|
|

* As of 9.53.0, we have (re-)introduced the patch level to the

|
|
version number, this helps facilitate a revised policy
|
|
|
|
|
on handling security related issues.
|
|
|
|
|
Note for GSView Users: The patch level addition breaks
|
|
|
|

GSView 5 (it is hardcoded to check for versions 704-999).

- The version upgrade to 9.52 fixes in particular
|
|
|
|
|
CVE-2020-12268: jbic2dec: heap-based buffer overflow
|
|
|
|
|
in jbig2_image_compose (bsc#1170603)
|
|
|
|
|
- Version upgrade to 9.52
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
* The 9.52 release replaces the 9.51 release after a problem
|
|
|
|
|
was reported with 9.51 which warranted the quick turnaround.
|
|
|
|
|
Thus, like 9.51, 9.52 is primarily a maintenance release,
|
|
|
|
|
consolidating the changes we introduced in 9.50.
|
|
|
|
|
* IMPORTANT: We have forked LittleCMS2 into LittleCMS2mt
|
|
|
|
|
(the "mt" indicating "multi-thread").
|
|
|
|
|
LCMS2 is not thread-safe, and cannot be made thread-safe
|
|
|
|
|
without breaking the ABI. Our fork will be thread-safe and
|
|
|
|
|
include performance enhancements (these changes have all
|
|
|
|
|
been offered and rejected upstream). We will maintain
|
|
|
|
|
compatibility between Ghostscript and LCMS2 for a time,
|
|
|
|
|
but not in perpetuity. If there is sufficient interest,
|
|
|
|
|
our fork will be available as its own package separately
|
|
|
|
|
from Ghostscript (and MuPDF).
|
|
|
|
|
* The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes,
|
|
|
|
|
and incremental improvements.
|
|
|
|
|
Incompatible changes:
|
|
|
|
|
* New option -dALLOWPSTRANSPARENCY: The transparency compositor
|
|
|
|
|
(and related features), whilst we are improving it, remains
|
|
|
|
|
sensitive to being driven correctly, and incorrect use
|
|
|
|
|
can have unexpected/undefined results. Hence, as part of
|
|
|
|
|
improving security, we limited access to these operators,
|
|
|
|
|
originally using the -dSAFER feature. As we made "SAFER"
|
|
|
|
|
the default mode, that became unacceptable, hence the
|
|
|
|
|
new option -dALLOWPSTRANSPARENCY which enables access
|
|
|
|
|
to the operators, cf.

|
- Version upgrade to 9.51
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
* 9.51 is primarily a maintainance release, consolidating
|
|
|
|
|
the changes we introduced in 9.50.
|
|
|
|
|
* We have continued our work on code hygiene for this release,
|
|
|
|
|
with a focus on the static analysis tool Coverity
|
|
|
|
|
(from Synopsys, Inc) and we are now maintaining a policy of
|
|
|
|
|
zero Coverity issues in the Ghostscript/GhostPDL source base.
|
|
|
|
|
* IMPORTANT: In consultation with a representative of
|
|
|
|
|
OpenPrinting (http://www.openprinting.org/) it is our
|
|
|
|
|
intention to deprecate and, in the not distant future,
|
|
|
|
|
remove the OpenPrinting Vector/Raster Printer Drivers
|
|
|
|
|
(that is, the opvp and oprp devices).
|
|
|
|
|
If you rely on either of these devices, please get in touch
|
|
|
|
|
with us (i.e. Ghostscript upstream), so we can discuss your
|
|
|
|
|
use case, and revise our plans accordingly.
|
|
|
|
|
* We (i.e. Ghostscript upstream) are in the process of forking
|
|
|
|
|
LittleCMS, cf. the other release notes entries below.
|
|
|
|
|
* The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes,
|
|
|
|
|
and incremental improvements.

|
|
|
|
|
- Version upgrade to 9.50
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
* The change to version 9.50 follows recognition
|
|
|
|
|
of the extent and importance of the file access control
|
|
|
|
|
redesign/reimplementation outlined below.
|
|
|
|
|
* The file access control capability (enable with -dSAFER)
|
|
|
|
|
has been completely rewritten, with a ground-up rethink
|
|
|
|
|
of the design. For more details, see: "SAFER" at
|
|
|
|
|
https://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.50/Use.htm#Safer
|
|
|
|
|
* It is important to note that -dSAFER now only enables the
|
|
|
|
|
file access controls, and no longer applies restrictions
|
|
|
|
|
to standard Postscript functionality (specifically,
|
|
|
|
|
restrictions on setpagedevice). If your application relies
|
|
|
|
|
on these Postscript restrictions, see "OLDSAFER" at
|
|
|
|
|
https://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.50/Use.htm#OldSafer
|
|
|
|
|
and please get in touch, as we do plan to remove those
|
|
|
|
|
Postscript restrictions unless we have reason not to.
|
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: File access controls are now enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
|
In order to run Ghostscript without these controls,
|
|
|
|
|
see "NOSAFER" at
|
|
|
|
|
https://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.50/Use.htm#NoSafer
|
|
|
|
|
* We (i.e. Ghostscript upstream) are in the process of forking
|
|
|
|
|
LittleCMS, cf. the other release notes entries below.
|
|
|
|
|
* The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes,
|
|
|
|
|
and incremental improvements.
|
|
|
|
|
Incompatible changes:
|
|
|
|
|
* There are a couple of subtle incompatibilities between the old
|
|
|
|
|
and new SAFER implementations. Firstly, as mentioned above,
|
|
|
|
|
SAFER now leaves standard Postcript functionality unchanged
|
|
|
|
|
(except for the file access limitations). Secondly, the
|
|
|
|
|
interaction with save/restore operations, see "SAFER" at
|
|
|
|
|
https://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.50/Use.htm#Safer
|
|
|
|
|
* The following is not strictly speaking new to 9.50,
|
|
|
|
|
as not much has changed since 9.27 in this area,
|
|
|
|
|
but for those who don't upgrade with every release:
|
|
|
|
|
The process of "tidying" the Postscript name space should have
|
|
|
|
|
removed only non-standard and undocumented operators.
|
|
|
|
|
Nevertheless, it is possible that any integrations or utilities
|
|
|
|
|
that rely on those non-standard and undocumented operators
|
|
|
|
|
may stop working, or may change behaviour.
|
|
|
|
|
If you encounter such a case, please contact us
|
|
|
|
|
(i.e. Ghostscript upstream, either the #ghostscript IRC channel
|
|
|
|
|
or the gs-devel mailing list would be best), and we'll work
|
|
|
|
|
with you to either find an alternative solution or return the
|
|
|
|
|
previous functionality, if there is genuinely no other option.
|
|
|
|
|
One case we know this has occurred is GSView 5 (and earlier).
|
|
|
|
|
GSView 5 support for PDF files relied upon internal use only
|
|
|
|
|
features which are no longer available. GSView 5 will still
|
|
|
|
|
work as previously for Postscript files. For PDF files,
|
|
|
|
|
users are encouraged to look at MuPDF https://www.mupdf.com/

|
|

|
|
|
|
- Version upgrade to 9.27
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
* We (i.e. Ghostscript upstream) have extensively cleaned up
|
|
|
|
|
the Postscript name space: removing access to internal and/or
|
|
|
|
|
undocumented Postscript operators, procedures and data.
|
|
|
|
|
This has benefits for security and maintainability.
|
|
|
|
|
Incompatible changes:
|
|
|
|
|
The process of "tidying" the Postscript name space should
|
|
|
|
|
have removed only non-standard and undocumented operators.
|
|
|
|
|
Nevertheless, it is possible that any integrations or
|
|
|
|
|
utilities that rely on those non-standard and undocumented
|
|
|
|
|
operators may stop working, or may change behaviour.
|
|
|
|
|
If you encounter such a case, please contact us (i.e.
|
|
|
|
|
Ghostscript upstream) - (either the #ghostscript IRC channel,
|
|
|
|
|
or the gs-devel mailing list would be best), and we'll work
|
|
|
|
|
with you to either find an alternative solution.
|
|
|
|
|
* Fontmap can now reference invidual fonts in a TrueType
|
|
|
|
|
Collection for font subsitution. Previously, a Fontmap entry
|
|
|
|
|
could only reference a TrueType collection and use the default
|
|
|
|
|
(first) font.
|
|
|
|
|
Now, the Fontmap syntax allows for specifying a specific index
|
|
|
|
|
in a TTC. See the comments at the top of (the default)
|
|
|
|
|
Fontmap.GS for details.
|
|
|
|
|
* The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes,
|
|
|
|
|
and incremental improvements.
|
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: It is our intention, within the next 12 months
|
|
|
|
|
(ideally sooner, in time for the next release) to make SAFER
|
|
|
|
|
the default mode of operation. For many users this will have
|
|
|
|
|
no effect, since they use SAFER explicitly, but some niche
|
|
|
|
|
uses which rely on SAFER being disabled may need to start
|
|
|
|
|
explicitly adding the "-dNOSAFER" option.
|
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: We (i.e. Ghostscript upstream) are in the process of
|
|
|
|
|
forking LittleCMS. LCMS2 is not thread safe, and cannot be made
|
|
|
|
|
thread safe without breaking the ABI. Our fork will be thread
|
|
|
|
|
safe, and include performance enhancements (these changes have
|
|
|
|
|
all be been offered and rejected upstream). We will maintain
|
|
|
|
|
compatibility between Ghostscript and LCMS2 for a time, but not
|
|
|
|
|
in perpetuity. Our fork will be available as its own package
|
|
|
|
|
separately from Ghostscript (and MuPDF).

used by attackers able to supply crafted PostScript to execute

|

code using the "pipe" instruction. This is due to an incomplete
|
|
|
|
|
fix for CVE-2018-16509
|
|
|
|
|
https://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=699714
|
|
|
|
|
https://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=699718

|
|

|
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1108027 bnc#1108027
|
|
|
|
|
Regarding what the above "should fix" means:
|
|
|
|
|
PostScript is a general purpose Turing-complete programming
|
|
|
|
|
language (cf. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostScript)
|
|
|
|
|
that supports in particular file access on the system disk.
|
|
|
|
|
When Ghostscript processes PostScript it runs a PostScript
|
|
|
|
|
program as the user who runs Ghostscript.
|
|
|
|
|
When Ghostscript processes an arbitrary PostScript file,
|
|
|
|
|
the user who runs Ghostscript runs an arbitrary program
|
|
|
|
|
which can do anything on the system where Ghostscript runs
|
|
|
|
|
that this user is allowed to do on that system.
|
|
|
|
|
To make it safer when Ghostscript runs a PostScript program
|
|
|
|
|
the Ghostscript command line option '-dSAFER' disables
|
|
|
|
|
certain file access functionality, for details see
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/share/doc/ghostscript/9.25/Use.htm
|
|
|
|
|
Its name 'SAFER' says everything: It makes it 'safer'
|
|
|
|
|
to let Ghostscript run a PostScript program,
|
|
|
|
|
but it does not make it completely safe.
|
|
|
|
|
In theory software is safe against misuse (i.e. has no bugs).
|
|
|
|
|
In practice there is an endless sequence of various kind of
|
|
|
|
|
security issues (i.e. software can be misused to do more than
|
|
|
|
|
what is intended) that get fixed issue by issue ad infinitum.
|
|
|
|
|
In the end all that means:
|
|
|
|
|
In practice the user who runs Ghostscript must not let it
|
|
|
|
|
process arbitrary PostScript files from untrusted origin.
|
|
|
|
|
In particular Ghostscript is usually run when printing
|
|
|
|
|
documents (with the '-dSAFER' option set), see the part about
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Version upgrade to 9.25rc1 (first release candidate for 9.25).
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
* This release fixes problems with argument handling, some
|
|
|
|
|
unintended results of the security fixes to the SAFER file
|
|
|
|
|
access restrictions (specifically accessing ICC profile files),
|
|
|
|
|
and some additional security issues over the 9.24 release.
|
|
|
|
|
* Security issues have been the primary focus of this release,
|
|
|
|
|
including solving several (well publicised) real
|
|
|
|
|
and potential exploits.
|
|
|
|
|
PLEASE NOTE:
|
|
|
|
|
We (i.e. Ghostscript upstream) strongly urge users to upgrade
|
|
|
|
|
to this latest release to avoid these issues.
|
|
|
|
|
* Avoid that ps2epsi fails with
|
|
|
|
|
'Error: /undefined in --setpagedevice--'
|
|
|
|
|
Recent changes required to harden SAFER mode mean that
|
|
|
|
|
it is no longer possible to run ps2epsi in SAFER mode,
|
|
|
|
|
because it relies upon unsafe Ghostscript non-standard
|
|
|
|
|
extension operators.
|
|
|
|
|
Removing SAFER and DELAYSAFER, and the code to reset SAFER,
|
|
|
|
|
allow ps2epsi to run as well as it ever did (ie badly).
|
|
|
|
|
This program (i.e. ps2epsi) should now be considered unsafe,
|
|
|
|
|
you should not use it on untrusted PostScript programs.
|
|
|
|
|
Likely we (i.e. Ghostscript upstream) will deprecate and
|
|
|
|
|
remove this program in future.
|
|
|

We (i.e. Ghostscript upstream) strongly urge users to upgrade
|
|
|
|
|
to this latest release to avoid these issues.
|
|
|
|
|
* As well as Ghostscript itself, jbig2dec has had a significant
|
|
|
|
|
amount of work improving its robustness in the face of
|
|
|
|
|
out specification files.
|
|
|
|
|
* IMPORTANT: We (i.e. Ghostscript upstream) are in the process
|
|
|
|
|
of forking LittleCMS. LCMS2 is not thread safe, and cannot
|
|
|
|
|
be made thread safe without breaking the ABI. Our fork
|
|
|
|
|
will be thread safe, and include performance enhancements
|
|
|
|
|
(these changes have all be been offered and rejected upstream).
|
|
|
|
|
We will maintain compatibility between Ghostscript and LCMS2
|
|
|
|
|
for a time, but not in perpetuity. Our fork will be available
|
|
|
|
|
as its own package separately from Ghostscript (and MuPDF).
|
|
|
|
|
* The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes,

|
|
|
|
- Version upgrade to 9.23
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
* Ghostscript now has a family of 'pdfimage' devices
|
|
|
|
|
(pdfimage8, pdfimage24 and pdfimage32) which produce
|
|
|
|
|
rendered output wrapped up as an image in a PDF.
|
|
|
|
|
Additionally, there is a 'pclm' device which
|
|
|
|
|
produces PCLm format output.
|
|
|
|
|
* There is now a ColorAccuracy parameter allowing the user
|
|
|
|
|
to decide between speed or accuracy in ICC color transforms.
|
|
|
|
|
* JPEG Passthrough: devices which support it can now receive
|
|
|
|
|
the 'raw' JPEG stream from the interpreter.
|
|
|
|
|
The main use of this is the pdfwrite/ps2write family of devices
|
|
|
|
|
that can now take JPEG streams from the input file(s) and write
|
|
|
|
|
them unchanged to the output (thus avoiding additional
|
|
|
|
|
quantization effects).
|
|
|
|
|
* PDF transparency performance improvements
|
|
|
|
|
* IMPORTANT: We (i.e. Ghostscript upstream) are in the process
|
|
|
|
|
of forking LittleCMS.
|
|
|
|
|
LCMS2 is not thread safe, and cannot be made thread safe
|
|
|
|
|
without breaking the ABI. Our fork will be thread safe,
|
|
|
|
|
and include performance enhancements (these changes have all
|
|
|
|
|
be been offered and rejected upstream). We will maintain
|
|
|
|
|
compatibility between Ghostscript and LCMS2 for a time,
|
|
|
|
|
but not in perpetuity. Our fork will be available as its own
|
|
|
|
|
package separately from Ghostscript (and MuPDF).
|
|
|
|
|
* We have continued the focus on code hygiene in this release
|
|
|
|
|
cleaning up security issues, ignored return values,
|
|
|
|
|
and compiler warnings.
|
|
|
|
|
* The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes,
|
|
|
|
|
and incremental improvements.
|
|
|
|

Incompatible changes
|
|
|
|
|
* The planned device API tidy has, unfortunately, been
|
|
|
|
|
indefinitely postponed, until appropriate resources
|
|
|
|
|
are available.

- For now use lcms2 from SUSE because that is what currently
|
|
|
|
|
Ghostscript upstream recommends according to
|
|
|
|
|
https://ghostscript.com/pipermail/gs-devel/2018-March/010061.html
|
|
|
|
|
because since Ghostscript 9.23rc1 there is no longer lcms2
|
|
|
|
|
in Ghostscript but now it is lcms2art which is the beginning
|
|
|
|
|
of a lcms2 fork, see News.htm that reads in particular
|
|
|
|
|
"LCMS2 is not thread safe ... Our fork will be thread safe ...
|
|
|
|
|
We will maintain compatibility between Ghostscript and LCMS2
|
|
|
|
|
for a time, but not in perpetuity", see also
|
|
|
|
|
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1082896#c14
|
|
|
|
|
- On SLE11 and on SLE12-SP1 there is liblcms2-2-2.5
|
|
|
|
|
which is too old so that configure fails there with
|
|
|
|
|
configure: error: lcms2 not found, or too old
|
|
|
|
|
but there is no configure option to build it without lcms2
|
|
|
|
|
so that for SLE11 and SLE12-SP1 it is built with
|
|
|
|
|
the lcms2art in Ghostscript.
|
|
|
|
|
- ppc64le-support.patch is no longer needed because it only
|
|
|
|
|
contained a fix for lcms2art/include/lcms2art.h in Ghostscript
|
|
|
|
|
but currently lcms2 from SUSE is used instead (see above).
|
|
|
|
|
- Do no longer require any fonts packages in particular
|
|
|
|
|
neither require ghostscript-fonts-std because the PostScript
|
|
|
|
|
Base35 fonts are provided by Ghostscript (in 'Resource')
|
|
|
|
|
nor require ghostscript-fonts-other (provides Bitream Charter,
|
|
|
|
|
Adobe Utopia, URW Antiqua, URW Grotesq and Hershey fonts where
|
|
|
|
|
all but the last are also provided by texlive-<name>-fonts) and
|
|
|
|
|
those fonts are not required for PostScript compliance, see

- Version upgrade to 9.23rc1 (first release candidate for 9.23).
|
|
|
|
|
For details see the News.htm and History9.htm files.
|
|
|
|
|
Regarding installing packages (in particular release candidates)

from the openSUSE build service development project "Printing"
|
|
|
|
|
see https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/Printing
|
|
|
|
|
- Adapted ppc64le-support.patch: In Ghostscript 9.23 there is now
|
|
|
|
|
lcms2art/include/lcms2art.h (instead of lcms2/include/lcms2.h).
|
|
|
|
|
- ghostscript-fix-debug-use.patch is no longer needed
|
|
|
|
|
because the issue is fixed in the upstream sources.
|
|
|
|
|
- fix_ln_docdir_gsdatadir.patch avoids
|
|
|
|
|
"base/unixinst.mak:162: recipe for target 'install-doc' failed"
|
|
|
|

|
- Version upgrade to 9.22.
|
|
|
|
|
For details see the News.htm and History9.htm files.
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
* Ghostscript can now consume and produce (via the pdfwrite
|
|
|
|
|
device) PDF 2.0 compliant files.
|
|
|
|
|
* The main focus of this release has been security and code
|
|
|
|
|
cleanliness. Hence many AddressSanitizer, Valgrind and
|
|
|
|
|
Coverity issues have been addressed.
|
|
|
|
|
* The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes,
|
|
|
|
|
and incremental improvements.
|
|
|
|
|
Incompatible changes
|
|
|
|
|
* The planned device API tidy (still!) did not happen for
|
|
|
|
|
this release, due to time pressures, but we still intend
|
|
|
|
|
to undertake the following: We plan to somewhat tidy up
|
|
|
|
|
the device API. We intend to remove deprecated device procs
|
|
|
|
|
(methods/function pointers) and change the device API
|
|
|
|
|
so every device proc takes a graphics state parameter
|
|
|
|
|
(rather than the current scheme where only a very few procs
|
|
|
|
|
take an imager state parameter). This should serve as notice
|
|
|
|
|
to anyone maintaining a Ghostscript device outside the
|
|
|
|
|
canonical source tree that you may (probably will) need
|
|
|
|
|
to update your device(s) when these changes happen.
|
|
|
|
|
Devices using only the non-deprecated procs should be
|
|
|
|
|
trivial to update.
|
|
|
|
|
- Up to 9.22rc1 it "just built" for all openSUSE versions but
|
|
|
|
|
since 9.22rc2 the libijs part does no longer buid for any
|
|
|
|
|
released openSUSE version where if fails with messages like
|
|
|
|
|
libtool: Version mismatch error.
|
|
|
|
|
This is libtool 2.4.6 Debian-2.4.6-2, but the
|
|
|
|
|
definition of this LT_INIT comes from libtool 2.4.2.
|
|
|
|
|
You should recreate aclocal.m4 with macros from
|
|
|
|
|
libtool 2.4.6 Debian-2.4.6-2 and run autoconf again.
|
|
|
|
|
Makefile: recipe for target 'ijs.lo' failed
|
|
|
|
|
so that currently it only builds for Tumbleweed/Factory.
|
|
|
|
|
Presumably it is not too complicated to make it build again
|
|
|
|
|
also for released openSUSE versions but currently I have
|
2018-03-15 13:57:22 +01:00
|
|
|
less than zero energy to fix such "latest breaking changes"
|
2017-11-30 11:44:29 +01:00
|
|
|
so that for now Ghostscript 9.22 is only provided for
|
|
|
|
|
openSUSE Tumbleweed/Factory and the upcoming SLE15/Leap15.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Version upgrade to 9.21.
|
|
|
|
|
For details see the News.htm and History9.htm files.
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
* pdfwrite now preserves annotations from
|
|
|
|
|
input PDFs (where possible).
|
|
|
|
|
* The GhostXPS interpreter now provides the pdfwrite device
|
|
|
|
|
with the data it requires to emit a ToUnicode CMap: thus
|
|
|
|
|
allowing fully searchable PDFs to be created from XPS
|
|
|
|
|
input (in the vast majority of cases).
|
|
|
|
|
* Ghostscript now allows the default color space
|
|
|
|
|
for PDF transparency blends.
|
|
|
|
|
* The Ghostscript/GhostPDL configure script now has much
|
|
|
|
|
better/fuller support for cross compiling.
|
|
|
|
|
* The tiffscaled and tiffscaled4 devices can now
|
|
|
|
|
use ETS (Even Tone Screening)
|
|
|
|
|
* The toolbin/pdf_info.ps utility can now emit
|
|
|
|
|
the PDF XML metadata.
|
|
|
|
|
* Ghostscript has a new scan converter available
|
|
|
|
|
(currently optional, but will become the default in a near
|
|
|
|
|
future release). It can be enabled by using the command line
|
|
|
|
|
option: '-dSCANCONVERTERTYPE=2'. This new implementation
|
|
|
|
|
provides vastly improved performance with large and complex
|
|
|
|
|
paths.
|
|
|
|
|
* The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes,
|
|
|
|
|
and incremental improvements.
|
|
|
|
|
Incompatible changes:
|
|
|
|
|
* The planned device API tidy (still!) did not happen for
|
|
|
|
|
this release, due to time pressures, but we still intend
|
|
|
|
|
to undertake the following: We plan to somewhat tidy up
|
|
|
|
|
the device API. We intend to remove deprecated device
|
|
|
|
|

|

- CVE-2016-7976.patch and CVE-2016-7977.patch and
|
|
|
|
|
CVE-2016-7978.patch and CVE-2016-7979.patch and
|
|
|
|
|
CVE-2016-8602.patch are no longer needed because
|
|
|

those issues are fixed in the upstream sources.
|

and

|
|
|
|
0002-mkromfs-sort-gp_enumerate_files-output-for-determini.patch

|
- Again use the zlib sources from Ghostscript upstream
|
|
|
|
|
and disable remove-zlib-h-dependency.patch because
|
|
|
|
|
Ghostscript 9.21 does no longer build this way,

- Version upgrade to 9.20. Purely a maintenance release.
|
|
|
|
|
For details see the News.htm and History9.htm files.
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
* The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes,
|
|
|
|
|
and incremental improvements.
|
|
|
|
|
Incompatible changes:
|
|
|
|
|
* The planned device API tidy did not happen for this release,
|
|
|
|
|
due to time pressures, but we still intend to undertake the
|
|
|
|
|
following: We plan to somewhat tidy up the device API.
|
|
|
|
|
We intend to remove deprecated device procs
|
|
|
|
|
(methods/function pointers) and change the device API
|
|
|
|
|
so every device proc takes a graphics state parameter (rather
|
|
|
|
|
than the current scheme where only a very few procs take an
|
|
|
|
|
imager state parameter). This should serve as notice to anyone
|
|
|
|
|
maintaining a Ghostscript device outside the canonical source
|
|
|
|
|
tree that you may (probably will) need to update your
|
|
|
|
|
device(s) when these changes happen. Devices using only
|
|
|
|
|
the non-deprecated procs should be trivial to update.

|

|
- Version upgrade to 9.19. Mainly a maintenance release.
|
|
|
|
|
For details see the News.htm and History9.htm files.
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
* Metadata pdfmark is now implemented. This allows the user
|
|
|
|
|
to specify an XMP stream which will be written to the
|
|
|
|
|
Catalog of the PDF file. A new pdfmark 'Ext_Metadata' has
|
|
|
|
|
been defined. This takes a string parameter which contains
|
|
|
|
|
XML to be add to the XMP normally created by pdfwrite.
|
|
|
|
|
See "pdfwrite pdfmark extensions" for more information.
|
|
|
|
|
* An experimental, rudimentary raster trapping implementation
|
|
|
|
|
has been added to the Ghostscript graphics library.
|
|
|
|
|
See "Trapping" for details.
|
|
|
|
|
Incompatible changes:
|
|
|
|
|
* (Minor) API change: copy_alpha now supports 8 bit depth
|
|
|
|
|
(as well as the previous 2 and 4).
|
|
|
|
|
* The gs man pages are woefully out of date and basically
|
|
|
|
|
unmaintained. With the release following 9.19, we intend
|
|
|
|
|
to replace their contents with a very limited summary
|
|
|
|
|
of (unlikely to ever change aspects of) calling
|
|
|
|
|
Ghostscript, and a pointer to the (maintained) HTML
|
|
|
|
|
documentation. That is, unless a volunteer is willing
|
|
|
|
|
to update, and commit to maintaining the man pages.
|
|
|
|
|
* ijs-config is no longer provided
|
|
|
|
|
Planned incompatible changes:
|
|
|
|
|
* We plan (ideally for the release following 9.19) to somewhat
|
|
|
|
|
tidy up the device API. We plan to remove deprecated device
|
|
|
|
|
procs (methods/function pointers). We also intend to merge
|
|
|
|
|
the imager state and graphics state (thus eliminating the
|
|
|
|
|
imager state), and change the device API so every device proc
|
|
|
|
|
takes a graphics state parameter (rather than the current
|
|
|
|
|
scheme where only a very few procs take an imager state
|
|
|
|
|
parameter). This should serve as notice to anyone maintaining
|
|
|
|
|
a Ghostscript device outside the canonical source tree that
|
|
|
|
|
you may (probably will) need to update your device(s) when
|
|
|
|
|
these changes happen. Devices using only the non-deprecated
|
|
|
|
|
procs should be trivial to update.
|
|
|
|
|
- fix_make_install.patch fixes and
|
|
|
|
|
add_brackets_for_old_autoconf.patch are no longer needed
|
|
|
|
|
because both issues are fixed in the upstream sources.

|
- Do not use library sources for freetype jpeg libpng tiff zlib
|
|
|
|
|
from the Ghostscript upstream tarball because we prefer to use
|
|
|
|
|
for long-established standard libraries the ones from SUSE
|
|
|
|
|
in particular to automatically get SUSE security updates
|
|
|
|
|
for standard libraries.
|
|
|
|
|
In contrast we use e.g. lcms2 from the Ghostscript upstream
|
|
|
|
|
tarball because this one is specially modified to work with
|
|
|
|
|
Ghostscript so that we cannot use lcms2 from SUSE.
|
|
|
|
|
- remove-zlib-h-dependency.patch removes dependency on zlib/zlib.h
|
|
|
|
|
in makefiles as we do not use the zlib sources from the
|
|
|
|
|
Ghostscript upstream tarball.

|
|
|
|
- An incompatible change appeared when building other software
|
|
|
|
|
with Ghostscript 9.18.
|
|
|
|
|
Since version 9.18 Ghostscript does no longer provide
|
|
|
|
|
e_<SomeError> (e.g. e_NeedInput) in its header files
|
|
|
|
|
(gserrors.h and ierrors.h).

|
|
|
|
When building other software with Ghostscript 9.18
|
|
|
|
|
gs_error_<SomeError> (e.g. gs_error_NeedInput)
|
|
|
|
|
must be used, see boo#953149 and

http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=696301

|
- Version upgrade to 9.18. A maintenance release.
|
|
|
|
|
There are no recorded incompatible changes (as of this writing).
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
* A substantial revision of the build system and GhostPDL
|
|
|
|
|
directory structure. Ghostscript-only users should
|
|
|
|
|
not be affected by this change.
|
|
|
|
|
* A new method of internally inserting devices into the device
|
|
|
|
|
chain has been developed, named "device subclassing".
|
|
|
|
|
This allows suitably written devices to be more easily and
|
|
|
|
|
consistently as "filter" devices.
|
|
|
|
|
The first fruit of this is a new implementation of
|
|
|
|
|
the "-dFirstPage"/"-dLastPage" feature which functions
|
|
|
|
|
a device filter in the Ghostscript graphics library, meaning
|
|
|
|
|
it works consistently with all input languages.
|
|
|
|
|
* Plus the usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes,
|
|
|
|
|
and incremental improvements.

- readd ppc64le patch ppc64le-support.patch (adapted for lcms2 in
|
|

Ghostscript version 9.15): the tests in lcms2.h cannot work

without "include <endian.h>" that is now added and
|
|
|
|
|
regardless that lcms is not used by default (unless the

(see http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=695544).

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Version upgrade to 9.15. Primarily a maintenance release.
|
|
|
|
|
There are no recorded incompatible changes (as of this writing).
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
* Ghostscript now supports the PDF security handler revision 6.
|
|
|
|
|
* The pdfwrite and ps2write (and related) devices can now be
|
|
|
|
|
forced to "flatten" glyphs into "basic" marking operations
|
|
|
|
|
(rather than writing fonts to the output), by giving
|
|
|
|
|
the -dNoOutputFonts command line option (defaults to "false").
|
|
|
|
|
* PostScript programs can now use get_params or get_param to
|
|
|
|
|
determine if a page contains color markings by reading the
|
|
|
|
|
pageneutralcolor state from the device (so whether the page
|
|
|
|
|
is "color" or "mono"). Note that this is only accurate when in
|
|
|
|
|
clist mode, so -dMaxBitmap=0 and -dGrayDetection=true should
|
|
|
|
|
both be used.
|
|
|
|
|
* The pdfwrite device now supports Link annotations with GoTo
|
|
|
|
|
and GoToR actions.
|
|
|
|
|
* The pdfwrite device now supports BMC/BDC/EMC pdfmarks
|
|
|
|
|
* Regarding the new color management for the pdfwrite device
|
|
|
|
|
introduced in the previous release, the proscription on using
|
|
|
|
|
the new color management when producing PDF/A-1 compliant files
|
|
|
|
|
is now lifted. To reiterate, also, with the new color
|
|
|
|
|
management implementation, using the UseCIEColor option is
|
|
|
|
|
strongly discouraged. For further information on the new
|
|
|
|
|
pdfwrite color management, see in Ps2pdf.htm the
|
|
|
|
|
"Color Conversion and Management" section.
|
|
|
|
|
* Plus the usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes,
|
|
|
|
|
and incremental improvements.

|
|
- Version upgrade to 9.14. Primarily a maintenance release.
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include (excerpt):
|
|
|
|
|
* pdfwrite now uses the same color management engine as
|
|
|
|
|
Ghostscript rendering devices (by default LCMS2). For
|
|
|
|
|
the duration of this release a new switch -dPDFUseOldCMS
|
|
|
|
|
is available which will restore the old color management.
|
|
|
|
|
See: "Color Conversion and Management" in Ps2pdf.htm
|
|
|
|
|
Due to constraints of the PDF/A-1 specification, the new color
|
|
|
|
|
management does not yet apply when producing PDF/A files.
|
|
|
|
|
* A new device 'eps2write' has been added which allows for the
|
|
|
|
|
creation of EPS files using the ps2write device instead of
|
|
|
|
|
the deprecated and removed pswrite device. The epswrite device
|
|
|
|
|
is now also deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
|
|
|
|
|
* Ghostscript has a new "pwgraster" output device for PWG Raster
|
|
|
|
|
output.
|
|
|
|
|
* The CUPS device now has improved support for PPD-less printing.
|
|

- ppc64le-support.patch from IBM fixes endianness
|
|
|
|
|
in lcms (the Little-CMS library) to support the new
|
|
|
|
|
architecture ppc64le (IBM Power PC Little Endian architecture)
|
|
|
|
|
because ppc64 is big-endian and ppc64le is little-endian
|
|
|
|
|
and lcms has a hard-coded check that assumes PowerPC
|
|
|
|
|
is always big-endian which is incorrect on ppc64le.
|
|
|
|
|
The fix is already in the main Little-CMS repository
|
|
|
|
|
by this Git commit
|
|
|
|
|
https://github.com/mm2/Little-CMS/commit/b4f5c91a2c1582bd284f0d0f49cb43e2c2235a79
|
|
|
|
|
(There are some cosmetic changes in the upstream patch.)
|
|
|
|
|
It is not yet in the imported copy in Ghostscript.
|
|
|
|
|
IBM will work with upstream to get the fix imported too.

- Version upgrade to 9.10. Primarily a maintenance release.
|
|
|
|
|
Highlights in this release include:
|
|
|
|
|
* LittleCMS2 and libpng have both been updated to the
|
|
|
|
|
latest versions.
|
|
|
|
|
* The URW Postscript font set has been updated to the
|
|
|
|
|
latest version, fixing many compatibility problems
|
|
|
|
|
with the Adobe fonts.
|
|
|
|
|
* The CUPS filters gstoraster and gstopxl have been
|
|
|
|
|
removed from Ghostscript. Those filters are now provided by
|
|
|
|
|
cups-filters (a free software package hosted by OpenPrinting)
|
|
|
|
|
that contains all CUPS filters needed by CUPS under Linux
|

- Version upgrade to 9.07.
|
|
|
|
|
* As of this release (9.07), Ghostscript is distributed
|
|
|
|
|
under the GNU Affero General Public License (AGPL).
|
|
|
|
|
* Ghostscript has been extended to support file sizes >4Gb
|
|
|
|
|
in particular reading and writing PDF files.
|
|
|
|
|
* Color management enhancements. Full details of the color
|
|
|
|
|
management features can be found in: GS9_Color_Management.pdf
|
|
|
|
|
* The pdfwrite devices now supports linearized (or optimized
|
|
|
|
|
for fast web view) output directly ("-dFastWebView").
|
|
|
|
|
* With the addition of linearisation to pdfwrite, pdfopt.ps
|
|
|
|
|
has become redundant. Since it is difficult to maintain,
|
|
|
|
|
has a number of bugs, and is believed not to work properly
|
|
|
|
|
anyway, it is removed. Accordingly the pdfopt shell script
|
|
|
|
|
that used pdfopt.ps is also removed.

- Require Ghostscript's font packages because the

Ghostscript package provides the "Fontmap" file
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/share/ghostscript/<version>/Resource/Init/Fontmap.GS

which lists Ghostscript's fonts but the fonts itself
|
|
|
|
|
are provided in the separated packages ghostscript-fonts-std
|
|
|
|
|
and ghostscript-fonts-other so that a RPM requirement
|
|
|
|
|
is needed to make sure that Ghostscript has its fonts.
|
|
|
|
|
- Extract the catalog of devices which are actually built-in
|
|

in exactly this Ghostscript and provide it as catalog.devices
|
|

in the Ghostscript package.

blow up the build system.

- Unfortunately ghostscript-library.spec and ghostscript-mini.spec
|
|
|
|
|
have unversioned "Provides: ghostscript" and for RPM this means
|
|
|
|
|
that both ghostscript-library and ghostscript-mini
|
|
|
|
|
provide any version of ghostscript. Therefore any non-matching
|
|
|
|
|
version of ghostscript-library and ghostscript-mini fulfill
|
|
|
|
|
any RPM requirement for ghostscript in the ghostscript-x11
|
|
|
|
|
and ghostscript-devel sub-packages which is wrong.
|
|
|
|
|
Therefore explicit conflicts with ghostscript-library and
|
|
|
|
|
ghostscript-mini are specified in the ghostscript-x11
|
|
|
|
|
and ghostscript-devel sub-packages to avoid the mess.

- Configure --without-libpaper disables libpaper support
|
|
|
|
|
because SUSE does not have libpaper.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Configure --without-jasper and --enable-openjpeg because
|
|
|
|
|
since Ghostscript 9.05 JasPer is deprecated and Ghostscript
|
|
|
|
|
now ships modified OpenJPEG sources for JPEG2000 decoding
|
|
|
|
|
(replacing JasPer). Performance, reliability and memory use
|
|
|
|
|
whilst decoding JPX streams are all improved. Accordingly
|
|
|
|
|
the BuildRequires libjasper-devel is removed.
|
|
|
|
|
- Configure --without-ufst and --without-luratech because
|
|
|
|
|
those are relevant to commercial releases only
|
|
|
|
|
which would require a commercial license.
|
|
|
|
|
- Added BuildRequires libtool which requires automake and
|
|
|
|
|
automake requires autoconf to fix build requirements
|
|
|
|
|
for openSUSE:Factory.

- Using fixed /usr/lib/cups/filter (no lib64) because CUPS

in the Printing project uses it in any case.

|

in openSUSE:Factory (dated 22 Feb. 2012).

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Added RPM dependencies to make sure ghostscript-x11 and the
|
|
|
|
|
main-package have exact matching version-release because both
|
|
|
|
|
could have any kind of Ghostscript-internal dependencies.
|
|
|
|
|
This is only an approximation to have ghostscript-x11 and
|
|
|
|
|
the main-package from the same build where the main-package
|
|
|
|
|
and its sub-package have been made but currently there is
|
|
|
|
|
no clean way to specify a 'same build' RPM dependency.
|
|
|
|
|
Therefore currently ghostscript-x11 and the main-package could
|
|
|
|
|
have same version-release but nevertheless come from different
|
|
|
|
|
projects/repositories (e.g. with different patches or
|
|
|
|
|
whatever kind of differences).

- Split files which require X11 stuff into a ghostscript-x11
|
|
|
|
|
sub-package (currently only /usr/lib/ghostscript/9.05/X11.so)
|
|
|
|
|
so that the ghostscript package can be installed without X11.

- Upgrade to version 9.05 (see bnc#735824):
|
|
|
|
|
New simple ink-coverage device (inkconv).
|
|
|
|
|
The ps2write device has a large number of improvements.
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes and improvements for the CUPS Raster output device
|
|
|
|
|
(in particular Ghostscript bug 691922 regarding color model).
|
2014-09-10 14:31:06 +02:00

- Removed "make cups" and "make cups-install" from spec file
|
|
|
|
|
using "configure ... --with-install-cups" instead
|
|
|
|
|
(new since version 9.04, see "configure --help").
