This time I down load from GPL Ghostscript 9.02.
After ran   ./configure then 
make

I am still having problem.  Please see below.

It seems the make can not find the Makefile -- How to tell the make   where the Makefile is ????

configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: error: cannot find input file: `Makefile.in'
[root at app1 ghostscript-9.02]# make

I did run  the .configure  first, then the make but failed as indicated below.

What Ghostscript  does this group support?  I thought this is the only Ghostscript
Available.  Whatever one work.

Makefile.in isn't the Makefile, it's a makefile template which the configure script uses to create a Makefile.

You have to run the configure script before you try to run make.

BTW, GNU Ghostscript is a fork which we don't actually support.
