Package: ghostscript
Version: 9.06~dfsg-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
ps2pdf hangs for me with this postscript file when simply run as:
$ ps2pdf test.ps
no output is ever generated, except a file in /tmp that slowly grows in size
(probably indefinitely), that I found by 'strace' of 'gs' process.
$ gv test.ps
shows file just fine.
The ps2pdf actually runs:
/usr/bin/gs -P- -dSAFER -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -q -P- -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH
-sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sstdout=%stderr -sOutputFile=test.pdf -P- -dSAFER
-dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -c .setpdfwrite -f test.ps
that hangs when run manually as well. Changing -sDEVICE to =X11 instead of
=pdfwrite and removing -dNOPAUSE displays the output on the screen just fine.

I just tested using ghostscript 10.02.1 (current "Debian/sid" version) and the
conversion succeeds; the result displays the same as "gv test.ps".
