I've got ghostscript installed fine here, up-to-date what used to be FC4t3
[Any chance that this might be changed to "Rawhide" or whatever in the
 fedora-release package?].

   [vonbrand at laptop11 linux-2.6.git]$ rpm -q ghostscript-fonts ghostscript-gtk
   ghostscript-fonts-5.50-13
   package ghostscript-gtk is not installed

Just installed ghostscript-gtk-8.15-0.rc3.1 without a hitch.

Hope this helps-
