print/ghostscript-gpl - The NetBSD Packages Collection

Postscript interpreter 

Ghostscript is the well-known PostScript interpreter which is available for
all common and most esoteric platforms and supports many different printers
and some displays.

This package contains Ghostscript 9.06, the last Ghostscript release
under GPL3 (August, 2012).  Newer releases are under AGPL3 (see
ghostscript-agpl); this package exists for those that prefer a very
old unmaintained GPL3 version to the AGPL3 version maintained by
upstream.  The most recent security patch in this package was
backported in 2017.
