The names I'd prefer to see used in the port are: ghostscript-fonts-other-3.0.tar.gz ghostscript-fonts-std-4.0.tar.gz One of the font TAR files has last been changed nearly two years ago, the other one has ben valid for all the gs-3 releases, and was replaced for gs-4, but applies to 4.00 and 4.01.
