Dear Scribus Team,

I recently encountered the problem that I am not able to import any eps files 
via File>Import> Get_vector_file anymore. This is really puzzling because I 
never had a problem regarding this matter for years.

I am using Ubuntu 16.04, Scribus 1.4.6, Ghostscript 9.25.

The prompt I get is:

Importing File:


<filename>.eps

failed!

It appears that there's a problem regarding ghostscript, since the terminal 
output is:

PostScript import failed when calling gs as:
-q -dNOPAUSE -dNODISPLAY -dBATCH -dDELAYBIND -g6048x2016 -r288 
-dTextAlphaBits=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 -c 450 -144 translate 
-sTraceFile=/home/georg/.scribus//ps.out -sExportFiles=<some_name> 
/usr/lib/scribus/import.prolog /<somepath>.eps -c flush cfile closefile
quit

Ghostscript diagnostics:
        GPL Ghostscript 9.25: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
        :

        Execution stack:

--dict:7/8(L)--

        Current allocation mode is local
        Current file position is 3303


However, looking at the images in ghostview directly works without any problems.

In the beginning, I thought that the fonts might be problematic but even the 
following file created via gnuplot, in this way:

gnuplot> set term eps color solid

gnuplot> set out 'test.eps'

gnuplot> p x

can not be imported and the error is the same.

I tried updating scribus, ghostscript, ghostscript-font (gsfont), without 
success.

Dou you maybe have any idea or experience how I could solve this issue?

Thank you in advance, Georg
