Description Mikhail Zabaluev 2004-12-03 12:06:40 MSK 
The configure script for libwmf finds ghostscript fontmap in
/usr/share/ghostscript/%gs_version/lib and hardcodes it.
This means that ghostscript version upgrades would break libwmf installations,
if a hard dependency on the ghostscript version is not maintained.

Solution: provide /usr/share/ghostscript/current symlink.

А это вообще правильно что эта библиотека лезет туда напрямую? Может лучше её
исправить?

Или это получается через libgs?

В силу отсутствия дальнейшей заинтересованности в этой баге со стороны репортера
- закрываю.
