ImageMagick reads but doesn't write DDS. And of course it reads and writes PNG.
From identify -list format:
...
DDS* DDS r-- Microsoft DirectDraw Surface
...
PNG* PNG rw- Portable Network Graphics (libpng 1.2.37)
...
To convert a file (leaving the original intact):
convert test.dds test.png
To convert a directory full:
for file in *.dds
do
convert "$file" "$(basename "$file" .dds).png"
done
