OK. I was wondering because I've had my PATH get ignored by an application that used ghostscript.
Since all of the errors appear to involve /sw/share/ghostscript/8.00/lib/gs_btokn.ps , it may be that the file has become corrupt. Maybe "fink reinstall ghostcript" will take care of it.
Oh yes, this worked out! Thanks, Alex.
The problem looks like this: I bought a new machine, and copied the entire /sw directory onto it, using "ditto" command. I tried rsync, also, but it didn't work quite welll. This caused certain copy errors, though. Most files are okay, but there seem to be a few files that didn't get copied properly. I suspect it caused this problem.
This sounds plausible to me. I tried a different approach: I set my laptop up to use my desktop machine as a .deb source; I make sure to run "fink scanpackages" on the desktop after I update, and then I can update the laptop with apt-get.
Thanks again,
Kow
