------------------------
Why are you checking if fd 1 is a tty ([ -t 1 ]) ?
I don't see the point, and the consequence is that when pdf2ps is executed
without an attached tty, the "output file" argument is ignored, and the
postscript file is outputted to stdout.
This problem causes other packages to fail to build (e.g opensp, #423818), so
it would be great if you could fix this ASAP.
Thank you,
