Like in my old fixed bug 510324, Ghostscript libraries are newly not updated both for 11.3, 11.2 and in the "Printing" repo http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Printing/ ? I also see some open or reopened ghostscript issue in the tracker that may be fixed by this new bug fixing release (february 2010 dated). Could you update the library? Thank you very much, Carlo p.s. As we can find in the historically Ghostscript site http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/ we can see 8.71 version, essentially a long bug fixing release: I report to you only the "headers" of the 8.71 release changelogs from the file /doc/History8.htm that you can find decompressing the ghostscript-8.71.tar.bz2 file that you can download from http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/doc/GPL/gpl871.htm I will next put History8.htm file as attachment to this issue. So that read first this section: Version 8.71 (2010-02-10) ------------------------- This is the second release in the stable 8.7x series. It features improved handling of fonts, nesting and color fixes with transparency objects, reduced memory footprint for the halftone cache, as well as improvements to the pxl output devices, and the usual number of bug and robustness fixes. New in this release is an experimental project file for Microsoft Visual Studio. This wraps the normal nmake build, and makes it easier for developers to get started building Ghostscript with that compiler. Support for tiff file output is now provided using the libtiff implementation rather than our more limited native code as in previous releases. There is also a new 'tiffsep1' output device which produces halftoned separations at 1 bit-per-pixel, in contrast to the 'tiffsep' device which produces 8 bit-per-pixel plates. Support for using FreeType as a type rasterizer has been greatly improved. We do not recommend its use as of this release, but it is much more functional than previously and our intent is that it will become the default in a future release. The graphics library has been updated to provide more accurate scan conversion of vector art including fixes to dash behavior, transparent stroked paths, thick stroked paths, radial shadings, xps cap handling, "pie" joins, degenerate beziers, improved handling of dropouts in thin strokes and better thin axis-aligned strokes. For a list of open issues, or to report problems with this release, please visit bugs.ghostscript.com. Incompatible changes -------------------- No recorded incompatible changes.
