Package: ghostscript, pstoedit Version: 9.26a~dfsg-0+deb9u6, 3.70-3+b2 Tags: upstream Control: fixed -1 + 9.50~dfsg-5
Hi. Dear maintainers of ghsotscript and pstoedit, Debian buster is affected by this bug: https://sourceforge.net/p/pstoedit/support-requests/4/ I'm afraid I don't understand the details. It appears that DELAYBIND is now deprecated with upstream. Everything works in bullseye. It is broken in stretch. Perhaps surprisingly, the pstoedit -nb option does not help. I am filing this bug here mostly to help other users of pstoedit on Debian. #880650 seems related but not identical. Maybe it would be worth considering a backport of ghostscript 9.50 to buster ?
