Package: ghostscript (ps2pdf gs gimp problems) Version: 8.62 Severity: important
Hello, I've installed lenny about a week ago, clean installation (had etch before on the same machine Dell Latitude D420) and noticed something wrong about ps2pdf command right away, but hoped it would sort itself. Now I am thinking that it wont, in fact, whenever I call any of the ps2pdf file.ps or gs file.ps commands, nothing happens and the system becomes very slow, all other applications seem to mostly stall, and I am obliged to turn off the computer. Even gimp has trouble opening a .ps file (again the system starts to become very slow and I have to turn it off). I found this website http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=475817 but am not sufficiently competent to really see if this is relevant nor to install the version 8.64 of ghostscript, lenny insists (there are broken dependencies otherwise) on version 8.62.
