Bug#843095: ghostscript: Please consider the patch for LP #1637583

[Brian Potkin <claremont102@gmail.com>]

Package: ghostscript
Version: 9.19~dfsg-3.1
Severity: wishlist



IPP Everywhere is fully supported in Stretch but there is bound to be a
hiccup or two. One such is described in LP #1637583 and a fix applied:

   https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups-filters/+bug/1637583

 ghostscript (9.19~dfsg+1-0ubuntu7) zesty; urgency=medium

   * debian/patches/020161028~0726780_gdevcups-pwgraster-bitmap-always-without-margins.patch:
     "cups" output device: When creating PWG Raster output, always output
     the bitmap of the full page, ignoring any unprintable margins suggested
     by the PPD file (LP: #1637583).

Would it be possible (or desirable) for this patch to be used in the
Debian ghostscript to maintain a good experience for users when Stretch
is finally released?

Regards,

Brian.
