 Could you provide some example code to be checked, please?
 It's unclear to me what the problem is.

Dear Mr. Yamane,

Thank you for your work.

For example, let the content of file.tex be as follows.

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
This is a sample file.
\end{document}

And please type following commands.
$ latex file
$ dvipdfmx -m 2 file.dvi

Then the results depends on the versions of dvipdfmx.
Recent dvipdfmx does not work well; it ignores -m option.

Sincerely yours,
Naoki Shioji

Subject: [dvipdfmx] dvipdfmx ignores "-m" option
Date: Wed, 31 Jul 2019 13:09:56 +0200
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Dear dvipdfmx maintainers,

https://bugs.debian.org/926642

we got a bug report telling that the -m option recently broke, when
using dvipdfmx:

dvipdfmx in texlive-binaries_2018.20180907.48586 works well with "-m
option". However, dvipdfmx in texlive-binaries_2018.20181104.49075 and
later ignores "-m option".

The problem is reproducible w/ texlive checkout as of 2019-06-05 and I
did not find an entry in [1]. Hence I guess the issue is unknown and
still present. For reproduction compile a small TeX document:

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
This is a sample file.
\end{document}

and process it using dvipdfmx.

Please be so kind to comment and keep the Debian bug in Cc.

Many thanks,
  Hilmar
