The "gs: command not found" is just a warning and the package build fine in
my sid chroot without ghostscript installed.  The real error is "Unable to
locate gslrand on load path".  This is weird, because the gslrand moudule is
in the slang-gsl package:

    $ dpkg -L slang-gsl | grep gslrand
    /usr/share/slsh/local-packages/gslrand.sl
