* gsftopk.c: Add an option -dNOSAFER for Ghostscript.
Otherwise gs-9.28 fails with:
- "gs: Last OS error: Permission denied".
- gs-9.28 is not released yet, and the above is noticed by
+ "Error: /invalidfileaccess in --run--".
+ gs-9.28 is not released yet, and the above is found by
testing with gs-9.28rc1.
+ The gsftopk requires to execute a PostScript code
+ "(absolute path) run" such as
+ "(/texlive/2019/texmf-dist/fonts/enc/dvips/base/8r.enc) run"
+ which is not allowed in SAFER mode of Ghostscript.
+ In the upcoming gs-9.28, SAFER mode becomes default even
+ if -dSAFER is not set in a command line. Thus an explicit
+ -dNOSAFER is necessary for the gsftopk.
