Yeah, this is caused by ghostscript not being updated in time. My mistake, I will make a Bodhi release today to solve this.
ghostscript-9.20-13.fc27 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 27. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-3d7ec36b9b
I confirm that update to ghostscript-9.20-13.fc27 solves the problem. Thanks! Dmitri.
Thanks for the info! :)
