From the Makefile: XXX ghostscript, ghostscript3 or ghostscript4 will all do. RUN_DEPENDS= gs:${PORTSDIR}/print/ghostscript4 however we have ghostscript5 now, and I suppose people tends to install the latest release of ghostscript for other purposes. The problem in fact might impact more packages/ports: when we have several releases of the same package, how do we specify "we want the latest" vs. "we want any of X,Y,Z" vs. "we want this specific version" ? >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Not checked, but perhaps in the Makefile do the following change: - RUN_DEPENDS= gs:${PORTSDIR}/print/ghostscript4 + RUN_DEPENDS= gs:${PORTSDIR}/print/ghostscript5 >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
