[gentoo-user] esp ghostscript?

[Zhang Weiwu]

Hello. I am using cups and later I installed ghostscript-afpl. And
later, I bought a new printer and found later it's not working. By other
people's suggestion, it seems that's because I should be using
ghostscript-esp but I don't find this package on gentoo!

I don't know why qpkg -f -I told me my /usr/lib/cups/filters/pstoraster
is a part of ghostscript-afpl but actually it is supposed to be part of
ghostscript-esp

Any hints on how to get ghostscript-esp working on my box (at least for
cups part)?
