You should see them on the first CD, try "rpm -i
/mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS/ghostscript-X-*"
or a better way, "urpmi ghostscript-X". You can try rpmdrake for a graphical
installation.
But how have you installed/upgraded your system as one of
ghostscript-{X,Both,PrintOnly,SVGALIB} is mandatory ?
Have you tried "rpm --nodeps -i ???" ?
