Package: apsfilter
Version: 4.9.1-10

I have a number of postscript files that apsfilter cannot print to my
deskjet (only happens with some .ps files, mostly color, all print properly
on my ljfour).  I have traced the problem to rewindstdin:

1. gs previews them fine.
2. gs segfaults if I use the command line:

   gs -q -sDEVICE=cdj550 -sPAPERSIZE=letter -dNOPUASE -dSAFER\
         -sOutputFile=- - <file.ps  

3. gs produces proper output for the cdj550 if I use the command line:

   gs -q -sDEVICE=cdj550 -sPAPERSIZE=letter -dNOPUASE -dSAFER\
	 -sOutputFile=- file.ps
  
   which is the exact same as above except the data is taken from a file
   instead of stdin	

Thus, the cdj550 filter requires the input postscript to be lseek()able.

The 'rewindstdin' program included with the package is supposed to address
this, but does not seem to work (the gs segfaults).

Editting /usr/lib/apsfilter/bin/apsfilter to make gs use a tmp file instead
of stdin (and cleaning up afterwards) makes the filter work.

Package: ghostscript
Version: 8.71~dfsg2-9

I have tested using the original file and it works
gs -q -sDEVICE=cdj550 -sPAPERSIZE=letter -dNOPUASE -dSAFER -sOutputFile=/dev/null < file.ps

Therefore close this old bug
