metamail or compatible UU-encoding is require for fax to email gateway, please add to require variable Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Um, how about a little more detail? Which version are you referring to? What exactly is the problem? The older Hylafax ebuilds (pre-4.2.0) should have a DEPEND on metamail, however, the latest 4.2.0 ebuild uses sharutils for MIME handling. If sharutils doesn't handle everythign correctly, you can still use metamail instead.
Created attachment 40170 [details, diff] new USE mail for notify
I send a sample patch for use with mail, the script bin/notify use mimencode for send pdf or ps in a mail.
I have seen the pagina of installacion, cvs, and reviewed all the sources of hylafax and I have not found any reference to sharutils. However if that I have found it for mimencode of metamail. http://www.hylafax.org/howto/install.html#ss2.2 requests metamail or uuencode in /var/spool/fax/bin/notify and pollrcvd really uses mimencode. I believe that metamail it is required for send and notification by email
Alrighty then, I'll take a look at it this week (since I think there'll be a new Hylafax ebuild anyway). I guess I need to look more closely at upstream and other changes before I let them slide through...
Try the 4.2.1 ebuild on for size.
