|
|
- 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 12:57:22 +00:00
|
|
|
less than zero energy to fix such "latest breaking changes"
|
2017-11-30 10:44:29 +00:00
|
|
|
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
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
(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 9.20. 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
|
|
|
|
|

When building other software with Ghostscript 9.18
|
|
|
|
|
gs_error_<SomeError> (e.g. gs_error_NeedInput)

|
|
|
must be used, see boo#953149 and

|
- 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.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- 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.

like texlive-bin-jadetex and texlive-jadetex which needlessly
|
|
|
|

blow up the build system.

- Require the basic fonts for Ghostscript
|
|
|
|

(package ghostscript-fonts-std) and recommend the
|
|
|
|
|
optional fonts (package ghostscript-fonts-other).

- Cleaned up BuildRequires.
|
|
|
|
|
- Added ghostscript-mini.spec with minimal BuildRequires.
|
|
|
|
|
- Explicitly specify configure --with-* versus --without-*
|
|
|
|
|
in ghostscript.spec versus ghostscript-mini.spec
|
|
|
|
|
to make the differences clear.

|

|
|
|
|
- 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 12:31:06 +00:00

Renamed the PXL CUPS filter from "pstopxl" to "gstopxl".

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