Removal of emacs23 from unstable/testing

2014-05-06 Thread Rob Browning
If we can, I'd like to remove emacs23 from unstable/testing before the freeze. To make that possible, any relevant packages will need to migrate to emacs24, or just include support for emacs24. In a while, assuming there are no showstopping objections, I'll see about filing the relevant bugs for

Ghostscript licensing changed to AGPL

Ghostscript have changed its license from GPL-3+ to AGPL-3+ since version 9.07. Ghostscript includes a library - libgs9 - licensed as AGPL-3+ like the rest of the project. It also includes a set of Type1 fonts apparently¹ licensed the same. I've tried² suggest relicensing of the library part,
