Hi,

~$ aptitude search ~dESP.Ghostscript
i A gs-common                       - Common files for different Ghostscript rel
i A gs-esp                          - The Ghostscript PostScript interpreter - E

So it is in gs-esp. It is weird if you don't have that installed, since
cupsys depends on it??

You might want to change the log level to debug to see what exactly
CUPS is no able to find.

BTW: that aptitude command searches packages, whose description has the
phrase "ESP Ghostscript".

HTH,
Simo
