Hi all,

Another old reported bug for a2ps: https://bugs.debian.org/1008579

It seems that /usr/bin/fixps tries to invoke gs with -sDEVICE=3Dpswrite, bu=
t
the pswrite device no longer exists. Maybe it shall use ps2write instead.

Looks like -sDEVICE=3Dpswrite exists in contrib/fixps.in.

(I am not familiar with ghostscript; please review this bug report in detai=
l
if possible.)

Thanks,
Boyuan Yang
