Bug#932897: libgs9-common: Require fonts-urw-base35 and get rid of font duplication that way

[Julian Wollrath <jwollrath@web.de>]

Package: libgs9-common
Version: 9.27~dfsg-2
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

libgs9-common provides the base 35 fonts in
/usr/share/ghostscript/9.27/Resource/Font/ while these fonts are also
packaged in fonts-urw-base-35. So it would make sense to depend on
fonts-urw-base35 instead and replace the fonts in
/usr/share/ghostscript/9.27/Resource/Font/ with symlinks to the fonts
from fonts-urw-base35, e.g.: replace
/usr/share/ghostscript/9.27/Resource/Font/C059-BdIta by a link
to /usr/share/fonts/type1/urw-base35/C059-BdIta.t1


With best regards,
Julian Wollrath
