I have found the solution.

The executables for ghostscript (gs, gsc) were located in /usr/local/bin 
but /usr/local/bin was not in PATH.

/bin was in PATH so I made symbolic links to ghostscript in /bin using 
the commands:

ln -s /usr/local/bin/gsc /bin/gsc
ln -s /usr/local/bin/gs /bin/gsc

Greetings,
Fabian
