Bug#613912: ghostscript ships its own fonts in libgs9-common, additionally depends on gsfonts

[Fabian Greffrath <fabian@greffrath.com>]

Package: libgs9-common
Version: 9.01~dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Hi Jonas,

is there a reason why ghostscript ships its own fonts in
/usr/share/ghostscript/9.01/Resource/Font in the libgs9-common package but also
depends on the gsfonts package? The latter contains modified variants of the
exact same fonts with added glyphs under different file names. Is it really
necessary to have both font sets installed?
