Upgrade opensuse 11.2 to opensuse 11.3 
The upgrade completed without any issues

Whenever I print a pdf file from Okular, KPDF/KDE3, XPDF, etc 
the message 
*** Warning: GenericResourceDir doesn't point to a valid resource directory.
is created and printed on a separate sheet. 

It happens also when the printing uses "print to pdf" or "virtual pdf printer"
options.

The message is related to ghostscript and it seems that some file[s] is[are]
missing during install/upgrade process.
gs 
gs -sGenericREsourceDir=./Resource/
reproduce the issue. 

Please note that this behaviour was triggered by the upgrade process.
On 11.2 I haven't had any issues as the one related above.

I feel that is something related to build and/or installation.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. try to print a page of a pdf file 
2. print a file using print to pdf OR wirtual pdf   
3. in both cases above use preview and a window with that message is displayed
   ( Ghostscript Messages - KPDF/KDE3 )
