Yes, that is not relevant here.

Why do you use the SuSE 9.1 rpm for ghostscript-cjk on 9.2?
There's no reason to do that, you should find the 9.2
version on your 9.2 CD/DVD set.

You can also download it from the 9.2 FTP version:

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.2/suse/noarch/ghostscript-cjk-20021119-218.noarch.rpm

The 9.1 rpm might work on 9.2 but I never tested that.  Better forget
that!

That's because you use an obsolete version of ghostscript-cjk.
Don't do that, update to the 9.2 version now!

In old versions of ghostscript-cjk I created the wrappers
directly in the bash script /sbin/conf.d/SuSEconfig.ghostscript-cjk.

Then I added support for artificial bold and italic by creating
additional wrapper scripts and as this became awkward in bash I
switched to using a perl script /usr/sbin/ghostscript-cjk-config
called by the the bash script /usr/sbin/SuSEconfig.ghostscript-cjk
which became almost empty because the perl script did the main work
now.
