Hi,
I want to reinstall ghostscript.
I did for checking reasons:
solfire:/root>emerge -pv ghostscript
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] virtual/ghostscript-0 0 kB
Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB
"Ok...let's do the real thing", I thought:
solfire:/root>emerge ghostscript
Calculating dependencies... done!

What did I wrong here ???

The point here is that there is more than one version of ghostscript. I use ghostscript-esp (emerge -av ghostscript-esp). There is also ghostscript-gpl and ghostscript-gnu available in portage. This is due to licensing issues. Ghostscript is a commercial company, the Linux versions are relicensed.

There is no need for using ghostscript-esp anymore as GPL Ghostcript
8.57 and ESP Ghostscript 8.15.4 have been combined to GPL Ghostscript
8.60 in August 2007.
So there is only ghostscript-gpl and probably ghostscript-gnu.

Daniel,
Thanks for the info. I am only using ghostscript-esp as it was pulled in as a dependency by cups. Looks like I need to upgrade.
Best regards,
John

It seems there is still a difference ?!?!
I want to use turboprint (propietary linux printer driver suit)
finally. What to choose?
Should I remove first both version, than install one (which one?) and
then reinstall cups and then reinstall turboprint and then finally
being able to print again (or not?) ?
Before doing anything else which screws up my system even more I would
thank the experts here for any advice in advance !

Did you uninstall app-text/ghostscript-esp beforehand? If yes there is
the possibility that some app depends on app-text/ghostscript-esp
instead of the ghostscript virtual but I don't think this is the case.
