the appropriate tool via USE_TOOLS (usually "gs:run"), and remove
ghostscript.mk. This change removes a rather out-dated file from
pkgsrc and switches packages to use the more compact implementation
of the Ghostcript-handling inside the tools framework.
around at either build-time or at run-time is:
USE_TOOLS+= perl # build-time
USE_TOOLS+= perl:run # run-time
Also remove some places where perl5/buildlink3.mk was being included
by a package Makefile, but all that the package wanted was the Perl
executable.

The foomatic-filters package provides foomatic-rip and foomatic-gswrapper.
foomatic-rip uses an external renderer (like GhostScript) to
translate PostScript to printer's native language. The printer
capabilities are described in PPD files. foomatic-rip works with
every known spooler.
foomatic-gswrapper massages arguments to make Ghostscript execute
properly as a filter.
