Hi

New versions of 'ghostscript/gs8/gs-devel' have been uploaded to a server near you.


DESCRIPTION:
============
GNU Ghostscript is Postscript interpreter capable of converting PS
files into a number of printer output formats.  Ghostscript can also
render PS files into a number of graphics file formats.


Cygwin NEWS:
============

o Recompiled against latest X11R7.4
o Implemented the suggestions from Yaakow, see
  http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2008-11/msg00411.html

  - Removed the native/X11 split
    (ghostscript-base and ghostscript-x11 packages obsolete, contents now
    in ghostscript package)
  - Fixed font paths
  - Added shared library and corresponding devel packages

 
UPDATE:
=======
To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the
http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your system.
Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up 'ghostscript' from
the 'Graphics' category (it should already be selected).

DOWNLOAD:
=========
Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't
allowed due to bandwidth limitations.  This means that you will need to
find a mirror which has this update, please choose the one nearest to you:
http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html

QUESTIONS:
==========
If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is
the appropriate place.
