* - deleted ports are only shown under the This port is required by section. It was harder to do for the Required section. Perhaps later...
Configuration Options:
===> The following configuration options are available for ghostscript10-10.04.0:
CUPS=on: CUPS printing system support
IJS=off: Support libijs based Ghostscript devices
TESSERACT=off: Enable Tesseract OCR engine
X11=on: X11 (graphics) support
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
Reason:
The port flavors have been replaced with a default port option of X11.
The flavors approach creates conflicting dependencies with other ports which
cannot be solved this time with the ports framework.
See PRs 270989 and 272541 for details.

print/ghostscript10: add default port option for X11
This change replaces flavors with a new default port option for X11.
Compared to GS 9 port the X11 device driver is now integrated into GS instead
of being dynamically loaded which is not in conformance with new GS 10 approach.
The flavors approach creates conflicting dependencies with other ports which
cannot be solved this time with the ports framework.
