I don't see anything in the ghostscript package that would result in these files/symlinks being created. Where did they come from?
Comment by Hussam Al-Tayeb (hussam) - Sunday, 27 September 2020, 15:26 GMT
ldconfig(correct name?) probably.

There have been similar cases before.

I know that ldconfig creates them. You reported this against the ghostscript package, and there's nothing in that package that would end up with these files being created.

Ok. Thank you. They are in the split packages ghostpcl and ghostxps.
