Fine.
(B) core/dgs/dgs/gs - ancient GhostScript code -- 10MB as far as I can
tell, this is just GS code and contains no DPS code at all....
Well, DPS is mostly just GS code.
(C) *POSSIBLY* dgs/fonts, which contains a bunch of old .pfb, .pfm,
and .afm PostScript fonts -- 2.5MB worth
In total, this would remove 18.5MB of old antiquated stuff which
nobody is using. Does anyone have any objections to this at all? I
realize this stuff is not in core, but surely it doesn't need to be
kept around forever.
Basically, all of dgs is obsolete.
But, FYI, you could just move all these files to the Attic, you can't
really delete them - only the gnu.org admin can do that and they're
averse to removing CVS stuff directly from the repositories - that's
what CVS is for anyway.
