    Dear all,

    We currently have the need of a recent version of ghostscript as aixtoolbox only provides a version 5.50 from 2008.

    As there are several other users who have requested a version of ghostscript, is ghostscript planned to be integrated in the current yum repo ?

    Can we provide assistance ? A working recent version of ghostscript is critical to our Dev Team.
