Can it do this on any > system with any mix of TrueType fonts? Are you sure? Also, try running 'apt-cache rdepends gs' some time. Consider how many of the packages which depend on gs also depend on its ability to display the standard 14 PostScript fonts. Probably most of them, frankly. If you want to weaken the "gs -> gsfonts" dependency to a Recommends, you will have to add a lot of other dependencies on gsfonts.
