Package: texlive-binaries
Version: 2020.20200327.54578-7
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: dean@serenevy.net

Dear Maintainer,

After upgrading to bullseye from buster, several of my latex documents
are not compiling correctly.

The problem occurs in files using pstricks and compiling into PDF
documents.

Example:

    \documentclass{article}
    \usepackage{pstricks}
    \begin{document}
    \fbox{
    \psset{unit=1in}
    \begin{pspicture}(0,0)(1,1)
      \rput[tl](0,1){TOP}
      \rput[bl](0,0){BOTTOM}
    \end{pspicture}
    }
    \end{document}

If compiled via:

  xelatex FILENAME.tex                        # incorrect output

or

  latex FILENAME.tex ; dvipdfmx FILENAME.dvi  # incorrect output

the resulting document places the "BOTTOM" text directly above the "TOP"
text when they should be about 1 inch apart with TOP on top.

When compiled to PostScript the document looks correct:

  latex FILENAME.tex ; dvips FILENAME.dvi     # correct output


The behavior appears to be the same problem reported in [1], in that
compiling the stack overflow document produces the same incorrect output
shown on the site. Though the comments on that post suggest that the
problem was a known issue and would be fixed in texlive 2020 (which is
the version in bullseye). The comments in that posting claim the problem
was in xdvipdfmx which is why I am filing this bug against
texlive-binaries.

Thank you for your time and consideration, I can provide more
information or testing if needed.

Hi,

closing the issue then.

Hilmar


I can confirm that everything seems to be OK in the latest testing versions, so things look fine going forward.

As for Debian bullseye/stable (which I think is out of scope by now, but others finding this bug may want some info), back-porting ghostscript 9.55.0 to bullseye doesn't help. The easiest fix I've found for bullseye is pinning/forcing ghostscript to the latest buster binary (9.27~dfsg-2+deb10u5 at the time of this writing).

Thanks for following up and I'm glad it will all work well in bookworm!
