ghostscript (9.15+dfsg-0ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release
     - Ghostscript 9.15
     - Ghostscript now supports the PDF security handler revision 6.
     - The pdfwrite and ps2write (and related) devices can now be forced to
       "flatten" glyphs into "basic" marking operations (rather than writing
       fonts to the output), by giving the -dNoOutputFonts command line option
       (defaults to "false")
     - PostScript programs can now use get_params or get_param to determine if
       a page contains color markings by reading the pageneutralcolor state
       from the device (so whether the page is "color" or "mono").
     - Note that this is only accurate when in clist mode, so -dMaxBitmap=0 and
       -dGrayDetection=true should both be used.
     - The pdfwrite device now supports Link annotations with GoTo and GoToR
       actions
     - The pdfwrite device now supports BMC/BDC/EMC pdfmarks
     - Regarding the new color management for the pdfwrite device introduced in
       the previous release, the proscription on using the new color management
       when producing PDF/A-1 compliant files is now lifted.
     - To reiterate, also, with the new color management implementation, using
       the UseCIEColor option is strongly discouraged.
     - For further information on the new pdfwrite color management, see: Color
       Conversion and Management
     - Plus the usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes, and
       incremental improvements.

    the fix.

    quilt.
