Bug Description
KLatexFormula does not work in recent Kubuntu/Ubuntu due to the new version of Ghostscript.
From version 9.10 (at least) ghostscript dropped support for the pswrite output device, substituting it with ps2write. No backward compatibility has been added.
[Impact]
The application give an error when trying to generate the formula, and is unusable at least in 13.10 and 14.04.
[Test Case]
Open the application, write a formula (it suffices writing a single x) and click on the formula symbol to generate the graphic. The application fail with the gs error about non-existent pswriter device.
[Regression potential]
Very low. The application is unusable in its state, and is a "terminal" application, nothing depend on it.
Reference:
See: https:/
The bug/problem is fixed in 3.2.8; please push this version in repositories of at least 13.10 and 14.04
