Bug description:
  [Impact]

  ps2pdf stops working after upgrade of ghostscript to 9.25~dfsg+1-0ubuntu0.14.04.2 .
  ghostscript and libgs9 are upgrated to 9.25~dfsg+1-0ubuntu0.14.04.2,
  but not libgs9-common which reamins at 9.25~dfsg+1-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 version.

  
  [Test Case]

  To reproduce the bug:
  Install 9.25~dfsg+1-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 version of ghostscript, libgs9 and libgs9-common.
  At this point ps2pdf should be working fine.
  Then sudo apt install ghostscript.
  ghostscript and libgs9 are upgraded but not libgs9-common.
  ps2pdf stops working :
  $ ps2pdf ascii.ps
  Unrecoverable error: typecheck in .bind
  Operand stack:
      --nostringval--  typecheck  --nostringval--  scheck  .gcheck

  
  [Regression Potential]

  Might cause problems when upgrading or installing ghostscript or
  libgs9
