Topic

Updated ghostscript packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2 Extended Update Support.

Description

The Ghostscript suite contains utilities for rendering PostScript and PDF
documents. Ghostscript translates PostScript code to common bitmap formats so
that the code can be displayed or printed.

This update fixes the following bugs:

  • Due to a bug in the upstream source code, converting large PDFs to PNG failed

under rare circumstances. This bug has been fixed, and the described problem no
longer occurs. (BZ#1477967)

  • Previously, the internal limit of ghostscript was too low when processing big PDF files. As a consequence, ghostscript terminated unexpectedly with a segmentation fault. The bug has been fixed by increasing the limit, and now ghostscript no longer crashes in the described situation. (BZ#1483508)

Users of ghostscript are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
