Dvips converts .dvi files, for example those produced by the TeX text formatting system, to PostScript(TM) format. If you are installing texlive, so that you can use the TeX text formatting system without direct PDF compilation, consider to install texlive-dvips. In addition, you will need to install texlive-latex (a higher level formatting package which provides an easier-to-use interface for TeX), and xdvi (for previewing .dvi files in X).
This package has been withdrawn from CTAN, and bundled into the distributions' package sets. The current sources of dvips may be found in the distribution of dvipsk which forms part of the TeX Live sources.

East Asian support for TeXLive.
The EC fonts are European Computer Modern Fonts, supporting the complete LaTeX T1 encoding defined at the 1990 TUG conference hold at Cork/Ireland. These fonts are intended to be stable with no changes being made to the tfm files. The set also contains a Text Companion Symbol font, called tc, featuring many useful characters needed in text typesetting, for example oldstyle digits, currency symbols (including the newly created Euro symbol), the permille sign, copyright, trade mark and servicemark as well as a copyleft sign, and many others. Recent releases of LaTeX2e support the EC fonts. The EC fonts supersede the preliminary version released as the DC fonts. The fonts are available in (traced) Adobe Type 1 format, as part of the cm-super bundle. The other Computer Modern-style T1-encoded Type 1 set, Latin Modern, is not actually a direct development of the EC set, and differs from the EC in a number of particulars.
EncTeX is (another) TeX extension, written at the change-file level. It provides means of translating input on the way into TeX. It allows, for example, translation of multibyte sequences, such as utf-8 encoding.
