Package: gs-gpl
Version: 8.01-5
Severity: normal
Hi,
GPL Ghostscript 8.01 fails to render PostScript textures (a PS feature
doesn't seem to be very widely used), without aborting. However,
`ps2pdf' aborts conversion as soon as it encounters a texture. Previous
versions of GPL Ghostscript did not have this problem.
An example of a PostScript file with textures is the Lout User's Guide,
available in the `lout-doc' package (testing/unstable).
Thanks,
Ludovic.
