# ghostscript-core/cfg - "Build" settings for package

#---------------------------------------------------------------------

[technotes]

1. This package installs  the core  GPL Ghostscript system.  The stan-
dard  Ghostscript fonts are  installed separately by the  "ghostfonts"
package.

#---------------------------------------------------------------------

2. At one point, there were at least *five* versions of Ghostscript:

      a. GNU     Ghostscript
      b. AFPL    Ghostscript (also known as Aladdin Ghostscript)
      c. Artifex Ghostscript
      d. GPL     Ghostscript
      e. ESP     Ghostscript

This distro selected GPL Ghostscript originally for the following rea-
sons:

      a. GNU Ghostscript per se was  discontinued.  (It was superseded
         by GPL Ghostscript.)

      b. Artifex Ghostscript required a commercial license.

      c. AFPL Ghostscript and GPL Ghostscript both  had free licenses,
         but GPL Ghostscript's license was less restrictive.

      d. GPL Ghostscript was updated more frequently than  ESP  Ghost-
         script.

There  was  one significant change in 2007:  ESP Ghostscript  and  GPL
Ghostscript  merged  (as of GPL Ghostscript  8.60).  According to  the
official CUPS web site (www.cups.org),  "all development on ESP Ghost-
script has ended with the (ESP) 8.15.4 release".

#---------------------------------------------------------------------

4. The "Jasper" component of Ghostscript  uses SDL  if it's available.
However,  for two reasons, SDL isn't presently listed as a dependency:
(a) listing  SDL here might c omplicate things,  since  Ghostscript is
low-level  and SDL is high-level,  and (b) SDL doesn't appear to be an
important requirement.
