Packaging ghostscript's X11 support separately

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I'd like to move %{_libdir}/ghostscript/9.15/X11.so into its own package
so that ghostscript can be used without pulling in libX11 etc.

All that needs to be done is to package X11.so separately, and if gs can
load it at runtime it can provide x11* drivers. If not, it won't.

I could package it in its own sub-package, ghostscript-x11, but that
might be a bit surprising to people who expect 'ghostscript' to have an
x11alpha driver.

Alternatively I could move everything else from ghostscript to a new
sub-package ghostscript-base, and have 'ghostscript' (i.e. just the
X11.so plugin) require ghostscript-base (i.e. everything else).

Opinions either way?

Tim.
