*** Please type your report below this line ***
When rubber intends to post process a dvi file (e.g. with dvips of
dvipdfm) then it should create a dvi file optimized for the post
processor. This means that packages (hyperref, graphicx,
grapphics, color etc.) should use the appropriate driver.
As far as I know, latex does not provide a way to specify the post
processor on the command line, which makes a general solution
impossible. However, most of the packages accept the post processor
as option. So simply making the post processor a global option of
the
document class does the trick in most cases (for packages graphics,
graphicx, color, xcolor, pgf). This can be achieved by
latex
'\let\originaldocumentclass\documentclass\renewcommand{\documentclass}[1][]{\originaldocumentclass[POST,#1]}\input{FILE}'
where we want to latex FILE to obtain a dvi file for post processor
POST.
(The idea is to redefine \documentlcass such that it behaves as if
POST was an option of it. I don't know a simpler way of doing
this, e.g.
latex '\PassOptionsToClass{POST}{CLASS}\input{FILE}'
where CLASS is the document class does not work. This may be
related to bug latex/2542 of the LaTeX bugs database.)
Test file test.tex:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{color}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}
\section{Some graphics}
\label{sec:some-graphics}
\textcolor{red}{This is a red text.}
\textcolor{green}{This is greeen.}
\end{document}
File ~/texmf/tex/latex/config/hyperref.cfg:

Let us compare the following commands. We check the used drivers in
the log file. First we check rubber:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/tmp/rubber$ rubber -o dvips test.tex
compiling test.tex...
compiling test.tex...
running dvips on test.dvi...
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/tmp/rubber$ grep '[Dd]river' test.log

The driver for hyperref is bad, hdvips should have been used.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/tmp/rubber$ rubber --clean -o dvips test.tex
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/tmp/rubber$ rubber -o dvipdfm test.tex
compiling test.tex...
compiling test.tex...
running dvipdfm on test.dvi...

*hyperref using default driver hypertex*
File: hypertex.def 2003/11/30 v6.74m Hyperref driver for HyperTeX
specials
All three packages use the wrong driver.
Let us check what happens if we use my suggestion for the command
line for latex:
