Package: ghostscript
Version: 8.71~dfsg2-3
Severity: important
Tags: squeeze
Hi folks,
I filed bug #575798 some time ago, but I am pretty sure, it is
obsolete by filing this one. Since two weeks I got the following error
message from the cups interface
/usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftoraster failed
The error.log contains an enormous amount of lines complaining about
formating issues.
Similar bugs have been found in Fedora and Ubuntu.
The error occurs by printing from Gnome Applications, for example gedit
or evince. OpenOffice.org or Icedove print well.

Still present where? With which version of ghostscript did you test?
It would still be useful if you could answer above - even if you cannot
test any further with different versions of ghostscript.
Please try the newest packaging as requested here:

I had hoped for help with above, as it is more reliable if those
initially experiencing the bug could confirm that the bug has been
properly solved.
Unfortunately it seems I get no response here, so I have decided to rely
on my own limited testing: Printing a random page (front page of a Nokia
AT command documentation) with the GTP-based evince-gtk works fine here,
using ghostscript 9.00~dfsg-2. Thus closing as solved.
