Package: ghostscript
Version: 8.64~dfsg-12

Justification: renders package unusable
current amd64 package of ghostscript

/var/cache/apt/archives/ghostscript_8.64~dfsg-12_amd64.deb
misses /usr/lib/ contents in data.tar.gz
This includes /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftoraster which makes every print task
fail:

E [27/Jun/2009:11:30:50 +0200] [Job 0] Unable to convert file 1696 to
printable format!
Downgrading ghostscript to lenny version does not help as it does not
contain /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftoraster either.
Please upload a corrected package soon!

Above is a bug in cups (or the helper packages more directly depending
on raster filters. The maintainer of cups is fully aware of the need
for the new ghostscript-cups package, as that maintainer reqested that
very change.

No: Ghostscript benefits in no way from the contents of
ghostscript-cups.
I will now close this as it is not a bug in ghostscript.
Kind regards, and thanks for your report, anyway :-)
