I have just installed TeXLive 2005 and have noted a problem -- 
possibly with my installation.   The problem does not exist 
in my TeXLive 2004 installation.

It seems that dvips cannot locate an eps file to include.

Here is the situation in detail:

	TeXLive 2004 installation  in /usr/TeX/   
When I run dvips I get the following message while the ps file is successfully created --
	This is dvips(k) 5.94b Copyright 2004 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com)
	' TeX output 2006.01.09:1001' -> letter.ps
	<tex.pro><texps.pro><special.pro>. <cmtt10.pfb>[1
	</home/burkhard/TEX/private_seal.ps>] 

	TeXLive 2005 installion in /usr/local/texlive/2005/
When I run dvips I get the following message while the ps file is created --
	This is dvips(k) 5.95b Copyright 2005 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com)
	' TeX output 2006.01.09:0951' -> letter.ps
	<tex.pro><texps.pro><special.pro>. <cmtt10.pfb>[1
	dvips: Could not find figure file /home/burkhard/TEX/private_seal.ps; continuing
	] 

Of course, I modify my PATH variable for these two experiments.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Many thanks in advance.
