Since there is no valid method to control *_DEPENDS, it
shouldn't be so easy to add third-party drivers which
require external libraries to current ghostscript-gnu
port without drastic restructure.
Setting aside that issue, CUPS rasterizer is not necessary
for every FreeBSD user. Ghostscript users who has no printer
don't need CUPS rasterizer. CUPS users who has no non-PS
printer also don't need CUPS rasterizer.
Moreover, there is no actually usable CUPS driver package
for non-PS printers except Gimp-Print at present. I guess
it's pretty reasonable to separating CUPS rasterizer from
existing ghostscript-gnu package.
Here is an experimental implimentation of CUPS rasterizer
port. I would like you to utilize it if my opinion is
acceptable.
