>Description:
ghostscript is required for gdal, but this machine will probably never be connected to a printer, so I have turned off many of the 'hardware' printer options. 

I don't know if / how I can get a list of the configure options I have changed.

Using portmaster to update gdal (after upgrading from 7.0 to 7.1-RELEASE) failed with the error below.

blah blah :

install  -s -o root -g wheel -m 555 /usr/ports/print/ghostscript8/work/ghostscript-8.64/epag-3.09/ert /usr/local/bin
install: /usr/ports/print/ghostscript8/work/ghostscript-8.64/epag-3.09/ert: No such file or directory
*** Error code 71

Stop in /usr/ports/print/ghostscript8.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/print/ghostscript8.

Ever the optimist, I tried just building from the ports collection as well, but broke with the same error messages.

trying to use packages system, it would appear that my ports system is too far advanced:

freebsd /usr/ports/print/ghostscript8 # pkg_add -r ghostscript8
Fetching ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7.1-release/Latest/ghostscript8.tbz... Done.
pkg_add: warning: package 'ghostscript8-8.62_5' requires 'png-1.2.32', but 'png-1.2.35' is installed
pkg_add: warning: package 'ghostscript8-8.62_5' requires 'freetype2-2.3.7', but 'freetype2-2.3.9' is installed


>How-To-Repeat:
portmaster ghostscript

or 

cd /usr/ports/print/ghostscript8 && make install
