Presumably.  It's for options other than the defaults.

That's fine; I just wanted to make sure that the module was
removed.

Have you installed the updated ghostscript-fonts package?  Check the
Errata (see below) if you haven't.

If you have already installed the updated ghostscript-fonts package,
you might want to remove the apsfilter (or was it magicfilter that
