Fix debian/libgs8.shlibs for ubuntu version number

21. By Till Kamppeter on 2008-02-06

* Merge from debian unstable, remaining changes:
  - gs-esp and gs-common depend only on ghostscript, not on ghostscript-x,
    as gs-esp had already split off gs-esp-x in Ubuntu
  - Updated the KRGB patch from HP to the newest upstream version with
    added checks for null forward device in the graphic procedures to fix
    segfault bug LP: #69905 and corrected "force banding" code in gsijs_open
    for small images (IE: hagaki in landscape).
