Description Tom Payerle 2021-01-19 22:01:35 UTC
Description of problem:
gv is described as ax "X frontend to ghostscript"

But the X11 drivers for ghostscript are in the ghostscript-x11 package, not the ghostscript package, and gv only depends on ghostscript.

So installing gv will bring in ghostscript, but it needs ghostscript-x11 to actually work.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.7.4


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. On a very basic system, dnf install gv 
2. 
3.

Actual results:
gv gets installed, along with ghostscript, but not ghostscript-x11
Running gv tmp.ps will result in error from ghostscript complaining about no such device x11.


Expected results:
To see the requested postscript file


Additional info:
Explicitly installing ghostscript-x11 fixes the issue, so it appears to just be a problem with the dependency listing in the RPM file.
