ghostscript problem

[j. van den hoff]

not sure whether this qualifies for a ticket: after recent (~ 2 days ago)  
`port upgrade outdated' postscript generation via `ghostscript' fails for  
me with an error

Error: /invalidfont in /findfont

GPL Ghostscript 9.16: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1


apparently when looking for basic fonts such as times roman. so it seems  
to longer be able to locate any fonts. unfortunately I don't know anything  
specific of ghostscript (just using it via `groff' to generate some  
postscript/pdf output).

this happens with  ghostscript @9.16_1+x11. if I deactivate this one and  
activate `ghostscript @9.10_2+x11' (which I luckily still had available)  
everything goes back to normal.

no idea what is going on here. any help appreciated. if I can provide  
further information I'll be glad to do this.

seen with macos 10.10.5 and MacPorts 2.3.3

best regards,

joerg
