ghostscript (9.07~dfsg-0ubuntu1) raring; urgency=low
* New upstream release
- Ghostscript 9.07 final release
- As of this release (9.07), Ghostscript and GhostPDL are distributed
under the GNU Affero General Public License (AGPL).
- The pdfwrite device now supports linearized (or optimized for fast web
view) output directly ("-dFastWebView")
- The Font API (FAPI) has been moved from the Postscript interpreter (psi)
into the graphics library (base), and extended to support the other
languages (PCL/PXL/XPS). All interpreters now use Freetype by default to
render all viable font types.
- Ghostscript has been extended to support Postscript string and array
objects with >64k entries.
- Ghostscript has been extended to support file sizes >4Gb - in particular
reading and writing PDF files. As a side effect of this, Ghostscript
also now supports 64 bit Postscript integer objects.
- All CMYK devices can now support simulated overprint of spot colors
using the "-dSimulateOverprint" command line option.
- Support for use of DeviceN ICC color profiles as the output profile with
the tiffsep and psdcmyk devices.
- Support for customized named color handling with DeviceN colors
- Support for black point compensation
- Support for K preservation in CMYK to CMYK conversions
- Support for DeviceLink profiles for graphic, image and text objects
- Support for custom color replacement
- Increased control in specifying color conversions as a function of
object type
- Full details of the color management features can be found in:
/usr/share/doc/ghostscript-doc/GS9_Color_Management.pdf
- Provide BigTIFF output option: the tiff devices can write BigTIFF files
using the "-dUseBigTIFF" option. This requires libtiff version >=4.0.0
(the option is ignored for versions <4.0.0)
- Plus the usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes, and
incremental improvements.
- Using built-in libopenjpeg with security fixes for CVE-2009-5030,
CVE-2012-1499, and CVE-2012-3358.

debian/patches/020130122-188e13b-cups-raster-page-size-matching-improvements.patch: Removed upstream patches.
* debian/copyright: Ghostscript is under AGPL 3+ now.
* debian/control: Build-depend on liblcms2-dev >= 2.4-0ubuntu3.
* debian/rules: Updated DEB_UPSTREAM_TARBALL_MD5
* debian/rules: Removed obsolete "--with-omni" from the ./configure
command line options, the "omni" driver stopped working years ago,
and no one complained.
* debian/symbols.common: Updated for new upstream source. Applied patch
which dpkg-gensymbols generated for debian/libgs9.symbols to this file.
