As far as the long font lines go... those are probably a result of your 
Ghostscript version.  It's basically taken from 'gs -h' output.  Mine 
look like this on one system I run:

FontMap:   
%rom%lib/:/usr/local/share/ghostscript/8.57/lib:/usr/local/share/ghostscript/8.57/Resource:/usr/local/share/ghostscript/fonts:%rom%lib/:/usr/local/share/ghostscript/8.57/lib:/usr/local/share/ghostscript/8.57/Resource:/usr/local/share/ghostscript/fonts
FontPath:  
%rom%lib/:/usr/local/share/ghostscript/8.57/lib:/usr/local/share/ghostscript/8.57/Resource:/usr/local/share/ghostscript/fonts:%rom%lib/:/usr/local/share/ghostscript/8.57/lib:/usr/local/share/ghostscript/8.57/Resource:/usr/local/share/ghostscript/fonts

In the 'gs -h' output I have this:

Search path:
  . : %rom%lib/ : /usr/local/share/ghostscript/8.57/lib :
  /usr/local/share/ghostscript/8.57/Resource :
  /usr/local/share/ghostscript/fonts

So you can see that the "%rom%lib" thing (which is non-consequential for 
HylaFAX here it seems) is a bug in Ghostscript.

With regards to the "basically empty" aspect of the file... all that I 
can think of is that your RPM uninstall of the previous HylaFAX version 
must have deleted the file.  There is no default hyla.conf file in the 
HylaFAX+ RPMs... so whatever is there gets there manually or from faxsetup.

Thanks,

Lee.
