eps bug

Dear ginac-bugs at ginac.de,

Installing GiNaC-0.5.4 on my redhat 6.0 system fails at the doc step:

make[3]: Entering directory `/home/kbriggs/GiNaC-0.5.4/doc/tutorial'
Running /usr/X11R6/bin/fig2dev -L eps -m 0.9 classhierarchy.fig classhierarchy.eps...
Unknown graphics language eps
Known languages are:
acad box epic eepic eepicemu gif ibmgl jpeg latex mf pcx pic pictex png ppm ps pstex pstex_t textyl tiff tk tpic xbm xpm 

I upgraded my transfig package to the latest from redhat 6.1
(Release 3.2 Patchlevel 1), but it has the same problem.

Actually, changing the command to 
fig2dev -L ps -m 0.9 classhierarchy.fig classhierarchy.eps
gives a perfectly good tutorial.ps.

Maybe the configure script should check whether the fig2dev version
installed knows about eps?

Best wishes,
Keith
