Summary of changes since libspectre 0.2.2
=========================

This is another bugfix only release in the libspectre's 0.2 series.

Several fixes in the PostScript parser:

 - Detection of invalid or broken files has been improved. A document
   scanned without errors with no pages and no format is likely to be
   an invalid file, or not a PostScript file at all (Bug #19042)

 - Fix possible uninitialized use of Document media struct
   contents. Thanks to Alexander Myltsev (Bug #18685)

 - Fix documents with PJL commands before the initial DSC comments.

Ghostscript is now always run with -dSAFER option

A missing argument in gs command line of PDF exporter was making it
always fail for any document in BSD systems. Thanks to Antoine
Jacoutot who gave me remote access to an OpenBSD system to fix this
(Bug #18826)

Internal copy of ghostscript headers have been removed since they are
already installed by ghostscript since version 8.62 (Bug #18827)
