Ok, found a workaround. Basically I uninstalled all the ghostscript packages from my system (libgs9, ghostscript, ghostscript-x and any other I found).
This was hard as apparently some of them weren't using the package manager. But I uninstalled all I could until the command "gs" in the shell stopped working. Then I reinstalled the OLD versions from the 10.04 Ubuntu packages. Specifically: libgs8_8.71.dfsg.2-0ubuntu7 from http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/libgs8 ghostscript_8.71.dfsg.2-0ubuntu7 from http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/ghostscript ghostscript-x_8.71.dfsg.2-0ubuntu7 from http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/ghostscript-x Again, this wasn't very easy since the automated installer (the new Ubuntu software center) automatically installed the latest version of parts of these packages (probably thinking I didn't really mean to install the old ones :/). Instead install using sudo dpkg -i package_file.deb (where package_file.deb is replaced with the package file you downloaded from the above links). Do it in the package order I gave here because of dependencies. To make sure it works, just run "gs" in the shell and check that the version is 8.XX (8.71 I think). This solved the problem for me.
