ARe you sure? Debian contains dvi2tty 5.3.1 ...: from COPYING therein:
dvi2tty
Copyright (C) 1989-2003 many, including Marcel J.E. Mol <marcel at mesa.nl>

                    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
                       Version 2, June 1991
...


How did you come to that conclusion?

Best wishes

Norbert
