package: gs-gpl
severity: wishlist

Hello!

A new version of ghostscript has been released:
http://www.ghostscript.com/awki/GPL_Ghostscript_8.60
Since this version is finally a merge of gs-esp and gs-gpl, I suggest the new package should Replace and Provide all of gs, gs-gpl, gs-esp, gs-afpl, gs-alladin, etc. and simply be called 'ghostscript' itself. The contents of gs-common could also be merged into the new package, since this will be the only gs-* available in Debian in the future.
I am suggesting this, because if have found openprinting.org upstream to use a very pleasant naming sheme for their example packages, which I think should be followed in Debian: 
http://www.openprinting.org/download/printing/esp-gpl-ghostscript-merge/README

Please consider upgrading this package and removing the forked versions.

Thank you for your effort!

Cheers,
Fabian

Changes: 
 ghostscript (8.61.dfsg.1~svn8187-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream release - closes: #437848, #291452
   * Important CJK handling fixes are absent from the current 8.60 or SVN, so I
     decided to use this SVN snapshots until the issue is fixed (Ubuntu does the same).
   * Can be built with the modern GCC now - closes: #440427
   * Complete re-organization: gs-gpl, gs-esp and gs-afpl are discontinued and
     gone altogether, and now there's only one ghostscript package - closes: #52603, #159516, #434791, #394628, #394350, #295377, #246983, #416253, #323867
   * Imported Ubuntu's various improvements on packaging.
     Thanks for Ubuntu people, especially Till Kamppeter.
   * Sorted out dummy packages - closes: #321989, #401137
   * Separated -doc package - closes: #138549, #391082, #389872

   * Separated libgs* packages - closes: #344351
   * Enabled cdj880 driver - closes: #157067
   * Enabled Lexmark 3200 driver - closes: #157067

   * Added /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts to fontpath - closes: #434310
