    The dvi2ps (which converts TeX .dvi files to postscript .ps files)
    is in the package lpdfilter for SuSE 9.3:
    http://www.novell.com/products/linuxpackages/professional/lpdfilter.html

    But if you have cups, you can not install lpdfilter because
    it conficts with cups, cups-SUSE-ppds-dat, and cups-drivers-stp.
    According to yast2.

    So what is a cups user to do if he wants to send a .ps file to some
    one with a postscript printer (via email perhaps), if he has a .dvi
    file?
