Package: hylafax-server
Version: 2:4.4.4-10.1
Severity: important

I tried to install the package and the post-install script exited with
an error:

| FATAL ERROR: /usr/bin/mawk does not exist or is not an executable program!
|
| The file:
|
|     /usr/bin/mawk
|
|     does not exist or this file is not an executable program.  The HylaFAX
|     software expects this program to exist and be in this location.  If the
|     program resides in a different location then you must either reconfigure
|     and rebuild HylaFAX or override the default pathnames in the distributed
|     software through one of the HylaFAX configuration files (consult the
|     HylaFAX documentation).

I don't have the mawk package installed, but using the gawk package
instead.  I believe the package should depend on mawk to avoid the
error.

I tried to symlink my gawk binary as mawk and the installation seems to
work now.  Maybe it's a good idea to depend on the virtual package awk
and fix the setup script to use the available awk variant.
