Yucky dependency problem - you do not want to run hylafax-4.0p12-3rh4 anyway.

I relaxed the ghostscript prerequisites in the HylaFAX-4.1 RPM, so you got a 
bit further this time. You would have the same problem with both of the RPMS, 
they are not compatible with the mgetty-sendfax RPM. You need to rpm -e that 
one before you may proceed.

Do this. You want to install this RPM . . . it runs sweetly ;-)
