Description maxfield 1999-10-19 18:11:50 UTC

ghostscript is required by ghostscript-fonts
ghostscript-fonts is required by ghoststript

rpm -e says it fails.

Comment 1 Bill Nottingham 1999-10-19 18:13:59 UTC

Try removing them both at the same time.

Comment 2 Preston Brown 1999-10-19 18:29:59 UTC

right.   They need each other.  Don't remove one at a time, if you
want to remove them both, include them both after rpm -e.

This is completely intentional.
