just had a look, but the mirror or distfile(s) seem to be wrong :(

Looks like it never made it to that SF server; other servers have it:

your port tries to fetch ​http://blaaa.sourceforge.net/gnughostscript/ghostscript-7.07.tar.bz2

you'd like to fetch it ​http://blaaa.sourceforge.net/ghostscript/ghostscript-7.07.tar.bz2

I'd fix this and have a look at it again! :)

PS: before submitting a port, delete it's files in ${prefix}/var/db/dports/distfiles/ and have a try with port extract;

[mww@…]

o.k. - seems to work now! :)

Do we have a possibility to prevent conflicts with the 'ghostscript' port? As far as I can see, almost all files form gnu- and nongnu version are duplicate (surprise); can we add a 'gnu' prefix or something like that to the gnughostscript stuff? (I'm not too familiar with the ghostscript distribution) Or could we create a ghostscript-fonts port that both versions of ghostscript will use?

If all of those questions are answered with a rather clear 'NO WAY', I'll submit your port immediately.

[blb@…]

Oops, that was definitely the problem; I'll attach a new tarball with the Portfile and patch.

As far as the collision with other (AFPL) ghostscript, they are mutually exclusive. What we need is the reverse of a depends_ option to say if one is already installed, don't do the other...

my sugested Portfile: ​http://wwwcip.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/~simrweis/dports/gnughostscript/Portfile

although, if you'd prefer exactly the one you put here in bugzilla, I'll happily submit that one! (my proposal only contains cosmetical changes and I checked: there's no diff between the installations)

[blb@…]

Yours is fine as well (better in the 'file mkdir', guess I must have copied the system stuff from another Porfile).

[mww@…]

commited! :)
