Summary:                    dvipdf fails with message "-q: not found"
Description: 
because dvipdf doesn't define GS_EXECUTABLE it tries to execute "-q" which
is not found...

looking at the Debian supplied file it has this salient code in the first
lines:

# This definition is changed on install to match the
# executable name set in the makefile
GS_EXECUTABLE=gs

Strangely, the script's code is of the same revision as the OpenCSW one.
The same is true for ghostscript itself.

I didn't check the other DVI converters provided by the package.
