Do you have the latest port revision of ghostscript8? We have tweaked
its dependencies in the last 2-3 commits. Check that the `Makefile' in
`/usr/ports/print/ghostscript8' includes:
# New ports collection makefile for: ghostscript
# Date created: Tue Jun 10 21:58:54 CEST 1997
# Whom: Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
#
# $FreeBSD$
#
PORTNAME= ghostscript8
PORTVERSION= 8.64
PORTREVISION= 5
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If the PORTREVISION is not 5, then please update the port and try again.
