Hi

Can you please show how you did run the installation?

> DVIPSHEADERS="/usr/local/texlive/2021/texmf-dist/dvips/base:/usr/local/texlive/2021/texmf-dist/dvips/l3backend"
> DVIPSFONTS="/usr/local/texlive/2021/texmf-dist/fonts/tfm/public/cm"

You seem to have an incomplete installation or broken setup.

My guess is that:
> PATH=/home/sepideh/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/usr/local/texlive/2021/bin/x86_64-linux

You are adding the TL installation to the END of the PATH variable, and
so my guess is that you have a different kpsewhich somewhere else.

What does
	which kpsewhich
say?

And, if you do
	PATH=/usr/local/texlive/2021/bin/x86_64-linux:$PATH
	export PATH
	dvips ...
does it work then?
