Well, you are on a different distro that I, openSUSE 11.2. I suspect you
need to install texlive-latex or some combination of texlive and latex as
the dvips binary is needed:
dvips - convert a TeX DVI file to PostScript
14:56 wahoo:~ > rpm -q --requires muttprint
LaTeX
psutils
perl
perl-Text-Iconv
perl-TimeDate
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
/usr/bin/env { from coreutils }
libc.so.6()(64bit)
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit)
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)(64bit)
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3.4)(64bit)
rpmlib(PayloadIsLzma) <= 4.4.6-1
your system's requirements will be different as you do not use rpm. I
suspect you are on a debian derivative, synaptics *should* provide a list
of the required supporting packages. I don't know how you installed
muttprint, but I would have expected your system to have complained that
a required package was missing.
let me know if I can help more.
