Description George Norris 2011-05-02 20:18:50 UTC
We recently upgraded to Ghostscript 9.02.   We are getting the following error messages when I try to load some of our test files that we use for regression testing new versions of Ghostscript.  I saw that a similiar problem was reported today for 9.01 on Windows and that a patch was provided.  Will there be a similiar patch provided for 9.02 on SunOS (SunOS 5.10 Generic_141414-10 sun4u sparc SUNW,Netra-440) and/or RedHat Linux (2.6.18-128.1.10.e15PAE #1 SMP) soon? I will try to get a file ready that I can attach to this bug.  The documents in question contain confidential information that would need to be edited out before I could send an example.  I wanted to ask if there was or soon will be a 9.02 SunOS or Linux patch before I attempt that, as editing the confidential data out can sometimes edit out the issue as well.

Thank you,

George Norris

You could try the patch from this bug:

which was giving a similar error message.

Remove customer field, this is not an Artifex customer, AFAIK.
