Hi everybody,
I just come from a friend who installed Mandrake 7.02 on his machine.
He made a full install (all packages). Everytime he tried to use gv
to look to a ps-file he got an error, "x11alpha" unknown device.
First I did'nt find the error until I realized the full install had
placed:
* ghostscript-PrintOnly
* ghostscript-X
* ghostscript-Both
on his hard-disk and the gs symlink was set to /usr/bin/gs-pr.
Has anyone else had this problem so far?
Why are those packages installed together instead of only
ghostscript-Both on a full install?
Isn't tere a confilcts-line missing in "ghostscript-Both" to disable
the other two packages to be installed on a full package install?
I checked the bug tracking system, but no bug report so far.
As I actually have no possibility to make a full install on a machine
to double-check if this was a random behavior an next time randomly
will be a symlink to an oter packages gs ...

Tschüss und bis demnächst/à bientôt,
Stefan
