I'm not sure who did the quoting in the RedHat package ("gs $driver"), but it's the cause of the error, not the upstream source. The upstream source does NOT quote $driver when passing it to ghostscript, and that's the way it has to be. RedHat: we have discussed this in the past. Please do not introduce "fixes" that break functionality (and do not improve *anything*). Also, 1.1.22 is pretty old. An upgrade to 1.1.23 or 1.1.24 would be a reasonable thing to do. What about issueing an upgrade to the mgetty package in 7.0 that's still severely broken (concerning logging and seemingly faxspool as well)? 1.1.25 errata packages which fix this will be going out shortly. |
