At least, installs much better. Only error remains the inability to create
the FIFO.tty02.

It also seems to receive faxes, at least picks up, but won't send:

I set postfix as pointed out in the hylafax mailing list, to
transport to 'fax'. And this has always worked out well.

Now we don't have that user; to whom should I sent it !?
The processes run under uucp.
(Probably this is why the earlier install 'duplicated' the ID; creating 
a new user 'fax' ?)

I don't think sending to uucp will get me much further:

# ls -l /var/spool/hylafax/
