ghostscript (9.16~dfsg~0-0ubuntu1) wily; urgency=medium
* New upstream release
- Ghostscript 9.16
- "LockColorants" command line option for tiffsep and psdcmyk
devices. Specifying -dLockColorants will restrict those devices to
only the colorants list on the command line (thus: -c "<<
/SeparationColorNames [ /Cyan /Magenta /Yellow /Black /Violet
/Orange] /SeparationOrder [ /Cyan /Magenta /Yellow /Black /Violet
/Orange]>> setpagedevice"), rather than allowing the devices to
add new colorants as encountered in the input. This is, obviously,
preferable for real printers, where only a certain of inks will be
available.
- Improved high level devices handling of Forms. Whilst High level
devices (eg pdfwrite) already checked Forms to see if they are
duplicates, and if so use the initial definition. However, this
does not improve performance, since the Form PaintProc still needs
to be executed for each instance of the Form, and the matching
algorithm could, in very odd circumstances, be defeated. The new
implementation benefits both causes, meaning the second and
subsequent invocation of the form need not re-run the PaintProc,
and removes the heurisic aspect of the reuse detection.
- New URW+ fonts in which the families NimbusMono, NimbusRoman and
NimbusSans have been augmented with production quality Greek and
Cyrillic glyphs. These correspond to our substitutes for the PDF
base 14 fonts.
- Plus the usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes, and
incremental improvements.
* 020150413_3e71154_pdfwrite_optimise_pdf_foget_resource_with_charproc_resources.patch:
Removed, included upstream.
* 2003_support_multiarch.patch: Refreshed with quilt.
* debian/rules: Added "zlib_h=" to "make" command line to work around

* debian/symbols.common: Updated for new upstream source. Applied patch
which dpkg-gensymbols generated for debian/libgs9.symbols to this file.
