Title:
ghostscript 9.05 fails with preview-latex and auctex
Status in “auctex” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
This is not the same as this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ghostscript/+bug/543266
The error in this bug is reported as:
Error: /invalidfileaccess in --file--
It is the same as the bug mentioned here:
http://email.esm.psu.edu/pipermail/macosx-emacs/2011-January/002566.html
and here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-auctex/2010-10/msg00016.html
I was able to fix this by downgrading to ghostscript 8.70. Note that
8.71 has a different bug in it that produces an error that says
Error /undefined in copy_trailer_attrs
(as reported here: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?29023)
