Re: change of ghostscript download site (mxe-octave)

[Tatsuro MATSUOKA]

Hello

I have tried to build mxe-octave with --enable-windows64 --enable-64 with 
freshly cloned mercurial repo.

I have met a following error.

Wrong checksum of package ghostscript!

The ghostscript.mk is not correct for download site

It is written as http://downloads.ghostscript.com/public/
But now URL is http://downloads.ghostscript.com/public/old-gs-releases/
. 
However, size and check sum of downloaded ghostscript-9.16.tar.gz from the new 
site are

~/Downloads$ ls -l ghostscript-9.16.tar.gz
-rw-rw-r-- 1 tatsuro tatsuro 110561280  May  3 17:46 ghostscript-9.16.tar.gz

~/Downloads$ sha1sum ghostscript-9.16.tar.gz
de963bfe627700ac2858ba92a9ddba0fe2513f6a  ghostscript-9.16.tar.gz

Apparently something is wrong for download site.
I have hacked  ghostscript.mk to go forward.
