I've asked an upstream author how he thinks of this issue

I got a reply from the upstream author today.  He said
that he updated dvi2ps so that it uses freetype2 instead
of freetype1 and it seems he prefer to drop support vflib than to move to vflib3.

He forgot to put the new package in the public but now
we can get from the standard ftp site of dvi2ps with version
dvi2ps-4.1j.tar.gz

I think to keep dvi2ps or not in Debian is quite another issue
but I hope this info will help you all.

That is excellent news, thank you for doing that! Now if we can just get a response from ohura.

I'd be happy to try to package the new version up if you don't have time/interest?

Thanks again!
