ghostscript 9.56.1~dfsg1-0ubuntu2 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

ghostscript (9.56.1~dfsg1-0ubuntu2) kinetic; urgency=low

  * Added upstream patch (commit 2a54c67) to use stable memory for
    pdfi streams, to avoid double-free when "runpdfend" when done
    with a PDF interpreter started with "runpdfbegin". This caused the
    autopkgtest of xfig to fail (Upstream bugs #705855, #705836, #705210).
