Ooooh - I=E2=80=99ve went down this rabbit hole already.

On sparc:=20

ghostscript-agpl gives bus error (crash seems to be related to lcms2 - =
alignment error ?)

ghostscript-gpl seems to work fine (obviously this is the older version, =
no updates, and destined to be removed at some point I would guess=E2=80=A6=
)

I actually opened a ghostscript bug with Artifex but we didn=E2=80=99t =
get very far:

https://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3D707915

So my solution is to either use -gpl or if I use -agpl you add =
"-dUseFastColor=3Dtrue=E2=80=9D to gs args.  My understanding is that =
this is bypassing lcms2 (using the old color engine).  Colors might be a =
bit off but it no longer crashes.=
