--- Begin Message ---Package: ghostscript Version: 9.54.0~dfsg-5 Severity: grave Justification: causes non-serious data loss The ps2pdf trashes some characters, making text non-searchable and partly unreadable via pdftotext (even though the glyph appears to be OK). There was no such issue in the recent past. LaTeX source to generate the PDF testcase: \documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \begin{document} \thispagestyle{empty} Test: float. \end{document} to be compiled with pdflatex. I've attached 2 files: * chartest.pdf (testcase generated by pdflatex). * chartest-gs.pdf, which is the buggy result obtained with "ps2pdf chartest.pdf chartest-gs.pdf". chartest.pdf contains the text "Test: float." as expected. But chartest-gs.pdf contains the text "Test: ŕoat.", which is incorrect: "fl" has been replaced by "ŕ". Removing "\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}" or the period after "float" makes this issue disappear. -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.14.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages ghostscript depends on: ii libc6 2.32-4 ii libgs9 9.54.0~dfsg-5 ghostscript recommends no packages.

This last issue shown by this testcase[*] seems to be fixed in ghostscript 9.56.0~dfsg-1, which has just appeared in unstable. I've also redone my old tests and couldn't find any regression. Since everything now seems to be fixed, I'm closing this bug. I've left the upstream bug open to get confirmation.
