[scribus] ghostscript

[a.l.e]

hi

i second the motion that the ghostscript warning should only be shown when somebody actually uses a function which actually needs it!

most people simply won't ever need it, but before even being able to see what scribus looks like, are bothered with that missing thing.



and to vincent: you can probably safely ignore that warning.

have a nice day and don't hesitate to ask in here if you have further problems!
