Meanwhile I use a simpler patch

because I do not need that link because
in our openSUSE ghostscript RPM we always had and still have
a link from SUSE's and openSUSE's usual documentation
directory /usr/share/doc/packages/ like this:
/usr/share/doc/packages/ghostscript -> ../ghostscript/9.23


Furthermore I think since ghostscript-9.23rc1 the examples
in the source directories examples/ and in examples/cjk
are no longer installed by default.


Finally since ghostscript-9.23rc1 I get a compilation error
only on the s390x architecture (which exists only in SLES12)
but I did not yet investigate what the root cause might be
