        Do not use hexadecimal names for type42 Charstrings and Encoding. This fixes
        substitution of certain characters by others when converting PDF to
        PostScript with the "ps2write" output device (LP: #898532, upstream bug

        PostScript (LP: #891074).
      * debian/patches/020111122-5cce070-ps2write-postscript-duplex-command-insertion.patch:
        ps2write: Insertion of duplex printing commands from PPD files into
        ps2write-generated PostScript did not have any effect, making duplex
        printing on PostScript printers not work in many cases (LP: #885118).

      * debian/patches/020111114-4258227-lzw-encode-filter-fix.patch: In the LZW
        encoder filter increment the code size before writing out EOD when the
        last code reaches the current limit code. Fix incorrect bytes or decoding
        errors at the end of some LZW-encoded streams. Fixes problems of
        ps2write producing PostScript output with spurious extra bytes
        (LP: #890270, upstream bug #692679).
      * debian/patches/029111114-08dc129-ps2write-truetype-fix.patch: Improved
        the TrueType composite glyph handling of the "ps2write" output device.
        This way PDF output of LibreOffice gets correctly converted to PostScript
        for PostScript printers and PostScript-based drivers (LP: #879977, upstream
        bug #879977).

  • ghostscript (9.04~dfsg-0ubuntu5) oneiric; urgency=low
    
      * debian/ghostscript-cups.ppd-updater: Added data file to trigger the update
        of the PPD files of existing print queues by CUPS and to tell CUPS which
        PPD files to use for the update and how to match them with the PPDs of the
        existing queues.
      * debian/ghostscript-cups.postinst: Removed the post-install script which
        was only there to update the PPDs of existing print queues.

        dependency on cups-client from ghostscript-cups.
      * debian/patches/1000_fix_segfaults_in_cups_raster_device.patch: Temporary
        fix for segfaults in the CUPS Raster output device. It stops the segfaults
        but has a slight memory leak. A better fix is in the works by the upstream
        developers.

        as the multiarch changes of libc6-dev ar not compatible with Ghostscript's
        auto-detection of time.h (LP: #825054).

  • ghostscript (9.04~dfsg-0ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release
         - Final 9.04 release, August, 5 2011
         - Flexibility for controlling color based upon the graphic object type.
           Unique output ICC profiles and rendering intents for vector graphic,
           image and text portions of a document can be set. It is also possible
           to override source color specifications and use specified ICC
           profiles and rendering intents for RGB and CMYK vector graphics,
           images and text portions of a document. Finally, DeviceGray source
           colors can now easily be specified to map either to K only or
           composite CMYK when the output device supports CMYK colorants.
         - New tiffscaled8 and tiffscaled24 devices.
         - PDF interpreter now tries to continue interpreting after an error in
           the input stream.
         - Re-enabled x11alpha as the default device on Unix systems, the problems
           with transparency are solved.
         - Experimental text extraction device "txtwrite" with full Unicode support.
         - Print rendering speed improvements for PDF input files (Upstream
           bug #691755, LP: #568363, LP: #668800).
         - Several fixes on the CUPS Raster output device to improve stability
           (Upstream bug #691586, #692368, #692393, LP: #628030).
         - Fixes on the RGBW color space support (needed for HP printers used with
           HPLIP) of the CUPS Raster output device, to work with PDF input files
           with transparency and to reproduce the colors correctly (Upstream bug
           #691922).
         - Added "-dNOINTERPOLATE" to the command lines of the CUPS filters to
           get a significant rendering speed improvement.
         - Fix of the pstopxl CUPS filter to make grayscale printing on color
           printers working.
         - The pxlmono/pxlcolor drivers produced huge output files in Ghostscript
           9.0x (Upstream bug 692329).
      * debian/rules: Updated MD5 sum for original source tarball
      * debian/watch: Search for .tar.bz2 source tarballs
      * debian/symbols.common: Updated for new upstream source. Applied patch
        which dpkg-gensymbols generated for debian/libgs9.symbols to this file.

         - Fixed RGBW color output of the CUPS Raster device (Upstream bug #691922).
         - Fixed RGBW CUPS Raster output of file with transparency.
         - Make CUPS filters call Ghostscript with the "-dNOINTERPOLATE" option.
         - Let gstoraster not crash when it is called outside CUPS (Upstream bug
           #692384).
         - Let gstoraster output its error messages with a newline at the end
           (Upstream bug #692385).

      * New upstream release
         - GIT snapshot from July, 21 2011 (Release Candidate 1)
         - Fix of a segfault when rendering a PDF file (Upstream bug #692368).
         - Fix of pstopxl CUPS filter to make grayscale printing on color

           9.0x (Upstream bug 692329).
      * debian/rules: Added new "--with-install-cups" option to the ./configure
        command line.
      * debian/rules: The scripts pv.sh and fixmswrd.pl are not shipped upstream
        any more, so we do not need to delete them any more.
      * debian/patches/fix-cups-raster-rgbw-output-of-files-with-transparency.patch:
        PDF files came out as garbage when printing on color inkjet printers from
        HP. This was due to the CUPS Raster output being messed up when the input
        file is a PDF with transparency and the output color space is RGBW.

      * debian/patches/1001_gstoraster_nointerpolate.patch: Make CUPS filters
        call Ghostscript with the "-dNOINTERPOLATE" option. This makes the rendering
        of the input files by a factor of 12 faster. This should really eliminate
        all complaints of LP: #568363, LP: #668800, and other "printing too slow
        bugs".

      * Merge from debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
        - debian/ghostscript-cups.postinst: Fixed "lpstat -r" check for the
          auto update of PPDs of existing queues. "lpstat -r" exits always with
          status 0, we must check the actual output. Call lpstat, lpadmin, and

          Thanks to Martin-Éric Racine for tracking this down and the solution!
          See Debian bug #543468. Use signal names instead of numbers for trap,
          quiesces a lintian bashism warning.
        - debian/ghostscript.preinst: Clean up traces of Ghostscript in defoma
          via "defoma-app purge gs", so that when updating packages which still
          use defoma no warnings get issued.
