In the past there were some issues with non-ESP versions of GS in
combination with CUPS-PDF since not all options were supported (at least
not in the same way). I never tested CUPS-PDF against GS-GPL, so I cannot
guarantee that it will work.
But if the maintainer can test CUPS-PDF with the GS-GPL that comes with
Debian, it is ok for me to include this alternative.

cups-pdf depends on gs-esp solely. Since from version 8.54 gs-gpl is
available
as complete gpl'ed program, it should be possible to install either
gs-gpl or gs-esp.
