* If you run gs, some startup files are not found.
* They are probably looked for in /usr/local/share/ghostscript/4.03 but the
* directory in the package is 4.02 instead. Besides, the compiled binary
* identifies itself (gs --version) as 3.53
This is bad. The gs binary in gs4 package was actually gs3.
I know exactly how this happened. When I did a "make package" from
ports/print, some port depended on gs4 so it built and installed it;
gs3 got built and packaged; then when it was gs4's turn, it saw the
install-done cookie and did a package without reinstalling (so it
pulled the gs3 binary). :<
I need to fix bsd.port.mk for this, but in the meantime; I have
uploaded the fixed package on ftp.freebsd.org so other ftp users won't
have this problem.
Jordan, if you haven't burnt the CDROM yet, please rsync packages-2.2
again.
