HELP: [Bug#122501: latex2html: should depend on gs for pstoimg]
It is in the Recommends list. If one doesn't have any character that
latex2html wants to convert to an image, it would work properly, hence
only Recommends (I beleive this is the reason from previous maintainer).
What do you think?
regards,
Chanop
