debian/patches/020130903-5ae4180-ps-interpreter-dont-interpolate-imagemask-data-for-high-level-devices.patch:
PS Interpreter: Do not interpolate imagemask data for high level devices.
This accelerates processing files with embedded bitmap images when the
output device is a high-level (vector) device. In this case an explicit
"-dNOINTERPOLATE" on the command line is not needed any more.

* New upstream release
   - Ghostscript 9.10 final release

148. By Till Kamppeter on 2013-08-28

debian/rules: Commented out "DEB_BUILD_PARALLEL = yes" line to suppress
parallelized building. This was leading to a race condition which broke
the "make" process onn the build servers.

* New upstream release
   - Ghostscript 9.10rc1.
   - Upstream: Mainly, changes to our Postscript startup code (to improve
     compatibility with Adobe) have had unexpected and undesirable side
     effects. Most of these have been in fairly widely relied upon, but also
     decidedly non-standard uses (pdf2dsc being a prime example).
   - We are using Ghostscript's libopenjpeg again, using the system's one
     does not (yet) work as there are still patches of the Ghostscript
     developers which did not get accepted upstream yet..
* debian/control: Removed build dependency on libopenjpeg-dev.
* debian/rules: Removed check for removed openjpeg/ subdirectory in the
  repackaging check again, also set build options for using Ghostscript's
  built-in libopenjpeg library.

* New upstream release
   - Ghostscript 9.09 final release
   - The URW Postscript font set has been updated to the latest version,
     fixing many compatibility problems with the Adobe fonts.
   - Bug fixes.

* New upstream release
   - Ghostscript 9.09rc1.
   - Upstream: Due to a couple of serious regressions that were discovered
     *very* shortly after the 9.08 release was completed, we decided it was
     best to withdraw 9.08, and produce a 9.09 release with those issues
     resolved.

* New upstream release
   - Ghostscript 9.08 final release
   - Background printing (BGPrint) is a new feature allowing an accumulated
     page clist to be rendered by one or more rendering threads whilst the
     interpreter (in the "main" thread) continues to accumulate the
     subsequent page's clist. For certain classes of file this can result in
     a useful performance increase. See: Banding Parameters (to be activated
     with the new "-dBGPrint" command line option).
   - GrayDetection allows suitably written devices to detect "color" input in
     near neutral tones (i.e. near monochrome) and to convert "on-the-fly" to
     pure grayscale, whilst retaining the ability to print full color on
     demand. This is primarily aimed at workflows where saving ink (especially
     color inks) is required. See: Device Parameters (to be activated with the
     new "-dGrayDetection" command line option).
   - Plus the usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes, and incremental
     improvements.
* debian/rules: Allow also '+' as separator between the upstream version
  number and any extensions (like "dfsg", "git", ...).

* New upstream release
   - Ghostscript 9.08rc1.
   - We are using the system's liblcms2 and libopenjpeg now.
* debian/patches/020130401-852e545-pxl-xl-driver-produced-drawing-commands-without-setting-color-space.patch:
  Removed patch backported from upstream.
* debian/patches/ojdk-8007925+8007926.patch,
  debian/patches/ojdk-8007927.patch,
  debian/patches/ojdk-8007929.patch,
  debian/patches/ojdk-8009654.patch: Removed patches on build in liblcms2, we
  use the system's liblcms2 now.
* debian/patches/2001_docdir_fix_for_debian.patch: Manually updated to new
  upstream source code.
* debian/patches/2003_support_multiarch.patch: Refreshed with quilt.
* debian/control: Added build dependencies on liblcms2-dev and
  libopenjpeg-dev.
* debian/rules: Check for removed lcms2/ and openjpeg/ subdirectories in
  the repackaging check again, also set build options for shared liblcms2
  and libopenjpeg libraries.
* debian/rules: Makefile.in and configure.ac are in the root directory of
  the source now and do not need to get linked from base/. Also there is no
  gstoraster and gstopxl CUPS filter in the package any more and no
  "install-cups" make target any more.
* debian/control, debian/rules, debian/ghostscript-cups.install,
  debian/ghostscript-cups.ppd-updater: Removed the ghostscript-cups binary
  package. The files are now provided by cups-filters.
* debian/symbols.common: Updated for new upstream source. Applied patch
  which dpkg-gensymbols generated for debian/libgs9.symbols to this file.

142. By Matthias Klose on 2013-08-04

Update symbols file for Aarch64.

141. By Matthias Klose on 2013-08-03

* Enable parallel builds.
* debian/copyright_hints: Remove. The copyright check is run even
  for arch only builds. For now, rely on the Debian import and
  handle that better when cdbs supports it.
