Public bug reported:
Ghostscript in Gutsy (and Hardy) gives wrong results for the Bounding Box for
most EPS files I've tried. It used to work fine with gs-gpl in Feisty. One
simple example of the failure is the following (using the example.ps file
attached):
gs -sDEVICE=bbox -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH example.ps
the result is wrong.
Reverting back to a previous version is hard, since the package changed
its name in Gutsy.
