graphicx-psmin is a latex package for reducing file sizes when you have a repetitive graphic appearing on every page. However, with intrepid, running ghostscript on the postscript produced with dvips from a document including a particular eps file (attached) produces an error:

It seems to be fine with other eps files, so you might think to blame this eps file, except I've been using this eps file with latex (with and without graphicx-psmin, and Microsoft products as well) for at least three years now, without incident. I would blame ghostscript except that I found one other report with a similar symptom that blamed the postscript producer for the problem. No problem with a straight includegraphics, the problem only arises when using graphicx-psmin.
