If you are allowed to run sudo on target system with Archlinux, you may try this https://raw.github.com/vp1981/pkgbuild/master/ghostscript/PKGBUILD Or, if you are the experienced Linux user you can install GS-git into $HOME and set up PATH correctly. --- WBR, Vladimir Lomov -- The big problem with pornography is defining it. You can't just say it's pictures of people naked. For example, you have these primitive African tribes that exist by chasing the wildebeest on foot, and they have to go around largely naked, because, as the old tribal saying goes: "N'wam k'honi soit qui mali," which means, "If you think you can catch a wildebeest in this climate and wear clothes at the same time, then I have some beach front property in the desert region of Northern Mali that you may be interested in." So it's not considered pornographic when National Geographic publishes color photographs of these people hunting the wildebeest naked, or pounding one rock onto another rock for some primitive reason naked, or whatever. But if National Geographic were to publish an article entitled "The Girls of the California Junior College System Hunt the Wildebeest Naked," some people would call it pornography. But others would not. And still others, such as the Spectacularly Rev. Jerry Falwell, would get upset about seeing the wildebeest naked. -- Dave Barry, "Pornography" _______________________________________________ auctex mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex
