I packaged Ghostscript 8.70 for Puppy
http://puppylover.netsons.org/dokupuppy ... hostscript
direct link
It seems work fine, only, at end of installation, it shows a warning about a single dependency missing:
libgio-2.0.so.0
but it seems work fine
do you think gs may work also without libgio-2.0.so.0? otherwise
I will add

Re: Ghostscript 8.70
libgio is a part of GLIB, which in turn is a dependancy of GTK. libgio should be present, you might find a simple symlink would work. That particular file, libgio-2.0.so.0 is probably a symlink itself, pointing to the main file which will be similar but have a slightly different extension.Dingo wrote:I packaged Ghostscript 8.70 for Puppy

On my system it links like this: libgio-2.0.so -> libgio.so.0 -> libgio.so.0.1800.3
The last one is the only actual library, the others are symlinks.

sikpuppy,
I ran into this missing dependency for another package (Chrome for Linux), and I see the symlinks you're talking about. Is it Puppy that's looking in the wrong place for the package, or Chrome? And how do I point them in the right direction so I can satisfy my OCD need to have all dependencies satisfied (even though Chrome seems to be working fine)?
Thankee much.

Ghostscript is a cross platform clone to render and print using the Postscript scripting language.Flash wrote:What does Ghostscript do? What is it for?
One of the uses is to render PDF files for printing and screen-rendering.
Basically a lot of PDF readers use it as well as CUPS to print I believe.

Here's libgio-2.0 from 2.14X, It should work on just about any puppy version with gtk2.
