This is a reasonable question. For this release I did not try to change the
structure developed by the previous maintainer, and for which I am aware of no
particular complaints. However, I am willing to try to improve the structure
of the package for future releases. In particular I wish to move from "Method
1" to "Method 2" for the packaging.
However I am not persuaded that there is an actual problem here. I don't think
it is intended that both ghostscript and ghostscript-x11 be installed, but
rather one or the other. In this case, the overlapping of files between the
two packages is not a bug, but a feature. It should probably be documented
more carefully in a README, however.
