My experience is a little different, but maybe it's pertinent. I 
installed Hylafax on a SuSE system from an rpm binary. But then I 
installed 4.1.7 from sources. It turned out that the rpm installation 
put the executables in /usr/sbin, but the source installation put them 
in /usr/local/sbin. After installing 4.1.7, the script that's invoked 
when you type "hylafax start" still ran the old executables in 
/usr/sbin. I fixed it just by copying the new files from /usr/local/sbin 
over the old ones in /usr/sbin. (In order to copy the faxgetty file, I 
had to stop the faxgetty process first.)
