Bug#1008579: a2ps: 'fixps -f' calls gs device 'pswrite' which should be 'ps2write'
Package: a2ps
Version: 1:4.14-7
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
The 'fixps' program fails when performing a full GS rewrite due to
$ grep pswrite /usr/bin/fixps
$gs -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pswrite -sOutputFile=- -c save pop -f $file ;;
which needs to be 'ps2write' not 'pswrite'. See:
