Hello,

Thanks for your interest in Debian, and sorry that the bugs were not
attended in due time.

gs and gs-aladdin were removed from Debian unstable long ago [1], 8+
years, at least with that package name.

Many of these reports don't have new information for years, or never
were really followed up by the people involved at the time; some even
without any activity for 10 to 15 years.  Two or three of the reports
were indeed confirmed and cloned as bugs to the more recent
"ghostscript" package.

[1] http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gs.html
[2] http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gs-aladdin.html

The bugs are now orphan (no maintainer assigned), so they are not
going to be noticed by anybody and dealt with, and indeed many of them
were already marked as unreproducible or contain references to files
never provided, and needed to reproduce the bug.

For all of the reasons stated, I am thus closing the bug reports now.
If somebody wants to keep them open, please reconfirm that they are
still happening and assign them to a current package, so they are not
orphan and can really be tracked.

Regards.
