I set the 
GS_LIB=/usr/share/ghostscript/7.05/lib:/usr/share/ghostscript/Resource:.

in cfgcache.pm as  the "Hint" below instructs.
But look just before the "Note:", it seems to get overwritten.
I also tried exporting GS_LIB.
The file gs_init.ps is in the lib directory.
The Directory "Font" in Resource

I have been able to run the latex2html and get output.
Am I doing something wrong or is it the script ?

Warning: Could not determine GS_LIB path.
         Ghostscript may not work due to missing startup files.
         You need to set the value of GS_LIB manually in cfgcache.pm.
Hint:    Search for the file 'gs_init.ps'. This directory and the 'fonts'
         directory (usually same level) should be set in GS_LIB.
         Separate the entries with the ":" character. The current
         directory "." should be included, too.
