Package: gs-common
Version: 8.70~dfsg-2
Severity: normal

According to its description and content, gs-common is a dummy package,
but it cannot be removed because ghostscript depends on it:

,----
| % aptitude show gs-common
| Package: gs-common
| State: installed
| Automatically installed: yes
| Version: 8.70~dfsg-2
| Priority: extra
| Section: text
| Maintainer: Masayuki Hatta (mhatta) <mhatta@debian.org>
| Uncompressed Size: 102k
| Depends: ghostscript
| Provided by: ghostscript
| Description: Dummy package depending on ghostscript
|  This dummy package is provided for a smooth transition from the previous
|  gs-.../gs-common combo (the packages are replaced by ghostscript).
| Homepage: http://www.ghostscript.com/
| 
| % aptitude why gs-common
| i   gv            Depends ghostscript-x               
| i A ghostscript-x Depends ghostscript (= 8.70~dfsg-2) 
| i A ghostscript   Depends gs-common (>= 8.63.dfsg.1-1)
`----

Although ghostscript provides gs-common, that does not help since
versioned provides are not implemented in dpkg.

Closes: 485621 539754
Changes: 
 ghostscript (9.00~dfsg-3) experimental; urgency=low
 .
   * Lower Priority of libgs-dev to extra: Depends on similarly
     prioritized comerr-dev and libkrb5-dev.
   * Fix install arch-independent files in new -common package and have
     library package depend on it: they are needed by library calls (not
     only by executables):
     + Install /usr/share/ghostscript/* into libgs9-common.
     + Install empty dir var/lib/ghostscript/CMap into libgs9-common (as
       well as into ghostscript where install scripts depend on it) as it
       is used by symlink.
     + Have libgs9 depend on libgs9-common.
     + Have libgs9-common break and replace older ghostscript.
     Closes: bug#485621, thanks to Tom Parker and others.
   * Drop obsolete quirks:
     + Drop transitional package gs-esp.
     + Drop virtual packages gs-esp gs-afpl libgs-esp-dev.
     + Drop conflicts/replaces/depends for gs-gpl gs-esp gs-cjk-resource
       gs-common libgs-esp-dev.
     Closes: bug#539754, thanks to Sven Joachim.
   * Package now team-maintained:
     + Set Debian Printing Team as author.
     + Set myself and Add Michael Gilbert as uploaders. Welcome, Michael!
     + Drop Masayuki Hatta and Torsten Landschoff as uploaders,
       reflecting the sad reality of them going silent. Thanks for past
       contributions, and feel free to join back later!
   * Newline-delimit package releations in control file.
   * Fix have ghostscript suggest ghostscript-x ghostscript-cups and
     hpijs, and have ghostscript-doc suggest ghostscript.
   * Rewrite short descriptions using upstream tagline. Various
     improvements to long descriptions.
   * Rewrite copyright file using Subversion candidate draft r166 of
     DEP5.
   * Update copyright-check suppression for newer CDBS.
   * Tighten build-dependency on cdbs to versions properly handling
     debhelper compat level 7.
   * Have libgs9 depend on gs-cjk-resource.
