- Subject: gs-gpl: does not include the pcl3 driver anymore
- From: Rogério Brito <rbrito@ime.usp.br>
- Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2004 19:40:44 -0300
- Message-id: <20040712224042.GA10977@ime.usp.br>
Package: gs-gpl
Version: 8.01-4
Severity: important
Unfortunately, gs-gpl 8 does not include the pcl3 driver anymore, which I
used with my HP840C. This made my spooling system broken until I understood
what the problem was.
Unfortunately also, using hpijs or the ijs/gimpprint cause the print outs
to come incorrectly (sometimes, using colors when only black and white is
supposed to apper) and, apart from the buggy printing (if we ignore that),
they also offer a much worse control of resolution and they also use much
more ink than is sufficient for good printing.
I had none of these problems with the pcl3 driver.
So, would it be possible to include the pcl3 driver again on gs-gpl?
Thanks in advance, Rogério Brito.

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.

* Separated -doc package - closes: #138549, #391082, #389872

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