Bug Description

Binary package hint: ghostscript

For Oneiric addition of ICC-based color management is planned:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-icc-color-management

This bug report is the work item to add Richard Hughes' patches for colord support to the Ghostscript package in Ubuntu. The patches are already applied to the upstream GIT repository of the Ghostscript 9.03 development cycle (release in August). To get enough time for testing the color management infrastructure we will soon package snapshots of the GIT repository (instead of released Ghostscript 9.02). In addition, the GIT repository contains also other fixes which need testing (speed improvements, antialiased X display output with transparency working). To get the new Ghostscript package built with colord support though, we need to introduce colord into the distro naturally, which is bug 741448.

---------------
ghostscript (9.04~dfsg-0ubuntu2) oneiric; urgency=low

  * debian/rules: Enable D-Bus in the ./configure command line, build-depend
    on libdbus-1-dev, and let ghostscript-cups recommend colord. All this is
    needed for colord support (LP: #788099).
  * debian/control: Build-depend on libdbus-1-dev.
