Public bug reported:

Hylafax server version 4.3.1-3, as shipped with 7.04, has *serious*
problems. It would seems to me that it would qualify for a fixed
package, since it break functionality that was present in previous
releases.

There are 3 problems:
   -  the default for the BASE64ENCODE does not work: it uses uuencode, that 
expects its input file as a filename instead of standard input.
   -  the notify script has an incorrectly escaped shell sequence in a grep
   -  there's been a change in how ps2pdf works that break the attaching of 
sent faxes in the notify script

There's a patch for the latter 2 problems here: 
http://people.debian.org/~terpstra/message/20061224.215836.cdac47cc.en.html
For the first, I used mimencode instead of uuencode and it works.

I've read in Gutsy there are fixed packages, but I think that this kind
of bugs should warrant a fix in the 'stable' distribution (i.e. no
backports)

Ciao,
  Roberto
