after updating my miktex 2.9 distribution it is not compiling correctly my old files, but giving me the error
Prozess gestartet: pdflatex.exe -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode "Lebenslauf".tex
Unfortunately, the package dvips could not be installed.Please check the log file: C:/Users/sirui/AppData/Local/MiKTeX/2.9/miktex/log/pdflatex.log
Kommando abgestürzt: pdflatex.exe -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode "Lebenslauf".tex

It seems to be trying to install the dvips packages which is no more available on ctan.
The log is as follows:

Has someone experienced this too and what would be the best solution to this issue?
Thank you in advance!
