According to the documentation, the switch happened with version 9.07 in 2013: https://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.54.0/History9.htm#Version9.07 As to why GUB still has 9.20, the comment pointed to by Han-Wen is probably one of the reasons (even though we're not producing freebsd- x86 anymore because it was broken anyway). Generally speaking, cross- compilation sucks and maybe nobody wanted to invest time upgrading to newer versions and writing patches to make it compile and work...

GUB / ghostscript
Hi everybody, is there any reason that we still use very ancient versions of ghostscript for our installers prepared via GUB? A number of vulnerabilities have been found, and it's easy to find detailed descriptions of exploits ... see e.g. https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2019/01/23/5 Knut

It seems that your system missing this file: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libfreetype.so So `ld` cannot find `-lfreetype`. My system (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64 bit, x86_64-linux-gnu) has this file: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfreetype.so So `ld` can find `-lfreetype`. There is no problem. I cannot reproduce the issue.
