0004288: Please rebuild ghostscript to link against CSW X11
/opt/csw/lib/libgs.so is linked against:

        libXt.so.4 => /usr/lib/libXt.so.4
        libSM.so.6 => /usr/lib/libSM.so.6
        libICE.so.6 => /usr/lib/libICE.so.6
        libXext.so.0 => /usr/lib/libXext.so.0
        libX11.so.4 => /usr/lib/libX11.so.4
        ...

and, /usr/lib/libX11.so.4 was linked against /usr/openwin/lib/libXext.so.0

This is causing problems when trying to use -lgs from graphviz.

Would you please rebuild ghostscript so as to pick up the OpenCSW X11 libs from
/opt/csw/X11/lib ?

But that it was that simple. gs supports gsview which requires gtk which is linked to X11.so.4 and gtk supports 26 packages directly. And so on through the packages connected to those 26.

We can't update parts of the package set in this way. Why does graphviz need X11R7? If it's just because one of its depends does then ask the same question upstream. If that gets to an actual need then you'll need forked support until more comprehensive rebuild is complete.

CSW X11 is no longer in favour so gs will remain linked to Sun X11
