Thanks for the info. I am only using ghostscript-esp as it was pulled in as a dependency by cups. Looks like I need to upgrade. |

There is no need for using ghostscript-esp anymore as GPL Ghostcript |
| 25 |
8.57 and ESP Ghostscript 8.15.4 have been combined to GPL Ghostscript |
| 26 |
8.60 in August 2007. |
| 27 |
So there is only ghostscript-gpl and probably ghostscript-gnu. |
