CRAN package check on MacOS: sh: line 1: gs: command not found

Dear R developers,

I recently observed a NOTE on several MaxOS X package checks:

sh: line 1: gs: command not found
!!! Error: Closing Ghostscript (exit status: 127)!
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: thumbpdf exited with bad status, quitting.


See for details:

or

Does anybody know what's wrong here?

Thanks a lot
