Hello,
I just noticed the following as I updated my installation.
---> Fetching ghostscript
---> Attempting to fetch ghostscript-8.61.tar.gz from http://downloads.sourceforge.net/ghostscript
---> Verifying checksum(s) for ghostscript
---> Extracting ghostscript
---> Applying patches to ghostscript

Warning: ghostscript requests to install files outside the common
directory structure!
---> Deactivating ghostscript 8.60_0
---> Installing ghostscript 8.61_0
The following files have been renamed (and should be removed):
/private/etc/cups/pstoraster.convs -> /private/etc/cups/
pstoraster.convs.old
/usr/libexec/cups/filter/pstopxl -> /usr/libexec/cups/filter/
pstopxl.old
/usr/libexec/cups/filter/pstoraster -> /usr/libexec/cups/filter/
pstoraster.old
/usr/share/cups/model/pxlcolor.ppd -> /usr/share/cups/model/

/usr/share/cups/model/pxlmono.ppd -> /usr/share/cups/model/
pxlmono.ppd.old

---> Cleaning ghostscript
This has prompted me to ask a few questions, which I have enumerated
below. Thank you for your assistance in helping me answer these.
1) What files has this port installed outside of the common directory
structure?
2) If I `sudo port uninstall ghostscript`, will it put things back to
how they were prior to this upgrade (will it fix any of the Apple
files/programs/directories that the port modified in 1))?
3) What does the "no_cups" variant do?
Thank you for your help with these.
Regards,
Anthony
