Pdflatex is the recommended export tool for the manuals.
Pdflatex brings the best results for hyperlinking.
Some features (e.g. rotated text) are not available in DVI or PS (dvips).
This does not affect export from command line or autotests
(where this setting is ignored and the format must aways be given explicitely).

dvipdfmx emits a lot of warnings and Koji suggests ps2pdf.
Thanks to Koji for the advice.
Note that on Debian, I installed the following packages
to be able to compile with ps2pdf:
fonts-takao-mincho
fonts-ipafont-nonfree-jisx0208
fonts-ipaexfont-mincho
Manuals, examples and templates that use (traditional) bibtex should have set the bibliography processor to bibtex. Else, these documents do not compile if a user has set the processor to 'biber' in the preferences
