Bug Description
as of version 9 of ghostscript-gpl it does not provide pstoraster anymore but gstoraster instead. hplip needs to be fixed so that it will just use that other tool.
A workaround is create a symlink from gstoraster to pstoraster in ghostscript to make hplip work again.
Please see that gentoo bugreport for more details: https:/

Since app-text/ ghostscript- gpl-9.02 (?), gs does not provide the "pstoraster" filter anymore, which has been renamed gstoraster.
ghostscript- gpl-9.04- r4 provides a symlink cups/filter/ pstoraster -> /usr/libexec/ cups/filter/ gstoraster for convenience until all print drivers are fixed.
/usr/libexec/
hplip needs to be fixed to use gstoraster instead of pstoraster
