* debian/patches/020120329-be64563-pdfwrite-when-a-charstring-is-not-found-for-a-glyph-use-the-notdef-width-instead-of-0.patch:
The "pdfwrite" output device uses zero and not the width of /.notdef whn
using /.notdef for a glyph not found in an embedded font. This leads to
wrong spacing in a PostScript file missing a space glyph (LP: #960989,
upstream bug #692944).

* debian/patches/020120319-d6f83df-ps2write-not3ccitt-option.patch: Added
option to let Ghostscript's "ps2write" output device not compress images
and bitmap glyphs with CCITTFax filter. The CCITTFax decoder in Brother's
PostScript printers is broken (LP: #955553).

* debian/ghostscript-doc.install, debian/ghostscript-doc.doc-base: Install
the Ghostscript documentation into /usr/share/doc/ghostscript-doc instead
of /usr/share/doc/ghostscript (LP: #789235).
* debian/libgs__VER__-common.postinst.in,
debian/libgs__VER__-common.prerm.in: Create a symlink
/usr/share/ghostscript/current to the /usr/share/ghostscript/
directory of the newest installed libgs-common package, to have
version-independent access to the Ghostscript files (LP: #327244).

* New upstream release
- Ghostscript 9.05 release, February, 8 2012
- Ghostscript's PDF interpreter is now able to make use of the
DroidSansFallback TrueType font to automatically substitute for
missing CIDFonts. Whilst it is always best to ensure the original
CIDFont is available for the best and most accurate output, the
ability to make an automatic substitution will be valuable for
those merely viewing or proofing such files.
- This release includes support for a proofing ICC profile. The
command option is specified using -sProofProfile=filename. With
this option, the color output will emulate what would be obtained
had the source file been rendered on a device defined by the
proofing profile. (See GS9_Color_Management.pdf for details.)
- This release includes support for a device link ICC profile. The
command option is specified using -sDeviceLinkProfile=filename.
With this option, the device link profile is added to the end of
the link transform from source to destination. In this case, one
can include a command line option like "-sDevice=tiff32nc
-sOutputICCProfile=srgb.icc -sDeviceLinkProfile=linkRGBtoCMYK.icc"
and source colors will be mapped through sRGB and through the
device link profile to CMYK values for the device. (See
GS9_Color_Management.pdf for details.)
- Ghostscript now supports "unmanaged color transformations" for
source DeviceXXX colors (in other words, they use a simplistic
conversion, rather than the ICC profile based color workflow). This
is beneficial in uses where performance takes precedence over
ultimate color fidelity (the command line parameter -dUseFastColor
enables this).
- The font set distributed with Ghostscript has been changed to the
standard 35 Postscript-compatible fonts distributed by URW.
- Ghostscript now includes a simple ink-coverage device, contributed
by Sebastian Kapfer (inkcov).
- The TIFF, JPEG and PNG output devices now support embedding of the
device ICC profile in the output file.
- jbig2dec now has simple halftone region support.
- The ps2write device has had a large number of output quality and
stability improvements.
- The txtwrite output was modified so that it more closely matches
the output from MuPDF, if requested. Note that the algorithms used
by the two products are not identical and may return slightly
differing results (See Devices.htm for details).
* debian/rules: Updated MD5 sum for original source tarball
* debian/symbols.common: Updated for new upstream source. Applied patch
which dpkg-gensymbols generated for debian/libgs9.symbols to this file.
