I installed ESP Ghostscript-8.15.1 and GSview-4.7 as per BLFS
subversion and gsview refused to load the ghostscript library,
complaining about the library version. It turns out that gsview
expects the version in the form "100*MAJOR+MINOR" (eg. 815) but the
library reports it in the form "10000*MAJOR+100*MINOR+MICRO"
(eg. 81501).
My quick-fix was to hack gsview to divide the version by 100 (patch
attached), but I doubt it's the right thing to do. What's the clean
way to fix this?
Cheers,
Jeremy Henty
