I cannot reproduce this bug at all in my sid chroot here.  I suspect that
the problem is due to some TeX configuration on your system, and does not
really come from the tipa package.

The error message issued by dvipdf (actually dvips) above typically occurs
when the font cannot be generated by some tool in the build chain, like
metafont.  However, since the tipa*.pfb files are present in the package,
those files get included by dvips.  Indeed:

$ dvips mydoc.dvi -o mydoc.ps
This is dvips(k) 5.95a Copyright 2005 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com)
'TeX output 2007.03.20:0047'-> mydoc.dvi
<tex.pro><texps.pro>. <tipa10.pfb><cmr10.pfb>[1]

Do you get the same as above in your system?

I tagged this bug "moreinfo", meaning that if I do not receive further
information in a reasonable time frame (say, one month from now) allowing to
reproduce the bug reliably, this bug report will be closed.

Anyway, thanks for your bug report.
