Hi all,
I just installed HylaFax on our FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE machine.
Couple of small issues.
First with regards to TGIF (in particular netpbm).
1) I created a fax cover sheet/page using the TGIF program.
First problem with this is that the netpbm port that is required to
properly install TGIF is apparently not functioning.
make runs fine, but I get the following error when I try to do a make
install in /usr/ports/graphics/tgif
spxdev:root# make install
===> Installing for tgif-4.1.41
===> tgif-4.1.41 depends on executable: giftopnm - not found
===> Verifying install for giftopnm in /usr/ports/graphics/netpbm
===> Extracting for netpbm-9.24
>> Checksum mismatch for netpbm-9.24.tgz.
Make sure the Makefile and distinfo file (/usr/ports/graphics/netpbm/distinfo)
are up to date. If you are absolutely sure you want to override this
check, type "make NO_CHECKSUM=yes [other args]".
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/graphics/netpbm.

spxdev:root#
Commenting out the
RUN_DEPENDS= giftopnm:${PORTSDIR}/graphics/netpbm
line in Makefile allows tgif to be installed fine, with the exception that
I can not import gif/jpg/png graphics.
2) The HylaFax problem I have is that the to-company and regarding fields
to not appear on my cover page.
I'm calling sendfax with the following example:
sendfax -d"name@faxnumber" -x "company name" -r "subject/regarding" filename
The fax sends fine, and uses my default cover page,
but the Company: and Re: fields are blank as if sendfax didn't pass the
variables at all.
I decided to try the default cover page (Silicon Graphics logo and all)...
And noticed that the
Company and Re: fields are blank there as well. So it would appear that
there's a bug in HylaFax for FreeBSD.
I have tried this on a Linux box and it works fine.
Just wondering if anyone else has seen this problem and has perhaps a fix
for it?
Thanks in advance.
