Bug#926576: ghostscript: printer stopped working: ghostscript fails with ""Unable to determine number of pages"
Package: ghostscript
Version: 9.27
Severity: important
Since ghostscript was upgraded to version 9.27 my printer stopped
working. Cups logs follows:

Downgrading to 9.26 is a temporary fix.
