   Hi,

	I am trying to get Ghostscript running on a 4.0-STABLE 
   environment. Here is what I get:

Ghostscript5:

	Won't build -

bash-2.03# make
===>  Building for ghostscript-5.10
make: don't know how to make libpng/png.h. Stop
*** Error code 2

Stop in /usr/ports/print/ghostscript5.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/print/ghostscript5.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/print/ghostscript5.


   hmmm, okay, that is odd, considering the other two have png.3
   dependencies, and they build...


Ghostscript55:

	It will build and install. When I run "gs", I get:

bash-2.03# gs /usr/local/share/ghostscript/5.50/examples/tiger.ps

>>showpage, press <return> to continue<<

GS>


	And there it sits. Nothing happending. ps -x shows:

 3020  p5  I+     0:00.70 gs /usr/local/share/ghostscript/5.50/examples/tiger.ps


Ghostscript6:


	This, too, will build and install. When I run "gs" this time,
   I get:

bash-2.03# gs /usr/local/share/ghostscript/6.01/examples/tiger.ps

	Sigh. Any ideas or suggestions?

						Thank you,
