Re: [hylafax-users] faxq faxgetty processes and the uucp user ref bug#571

[Tarkan Taralp <ttaralp@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Based on the feed-back I conclude this is probably not a bug. It is 
probably due to a problem with my own configuration. I shall investigate 
the issue further and if let you know if there is something worth 
reporting. Incidentally I am using Pardus version 2007
