Synopsis

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated ghostscript-fonts package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The ghostscript-fonts package contains a set of fonts that Ghostscript, a PostScript interpreter, uses to render text. These fonts are in addition to the fonts shared by Ghostscript and the X Window System.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Previously, the ghostscript-fonts package contained fonts with a restrictive license. With this update, the fonts with restricted rights causing a licensing problem are removed from the package. (BZ#1067294)

Users of ghostscript-fonts are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes this bug.
