Hello, With GNU Ghostscript 8.64, I noticed the following:

[...] --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- The problem stems from the fact that links to the URW+ PFB files disappeared from `Fontmap.GS' sometime between 8.62 and 8.64. I solved it in the NixOS distribution with this patch: <URL:https://svn.nixos.org/websvn/nix/?op=comp&compare[]=...@15779&compare[]=...@15780> Do you confirm that this is the right approach? Thanks, Ludo'. PS: `bug-ghostscr...@gnu.org' seems to be swallowing emails without ever publishing them and without sending any kind of notification to the sender. Perhaps a misconfiguration?
