Greg, I haven't sent a fax in ages, so my suggestion would be to take a step back and see if you still need to use fax. You may still have a need for it, but I'm just suggesting that you think about it!
Cheers,
Cliff

First try installing compiled rpm on a TEST system, and if that does not work you can try recompiling the source rpm, or ask someone to help you, maybe maintainer of ghostscript in Fedora.
if you rebuild it via the RPM, it likely will overwrite the 'stock' ghostscript.
a tarball install could be built to run in /usr/local/ghostscript/... or /opt/mystuff/ghostscript/... or whatever, and not interfere with the distribution build.
That is true if hylafax can be pointed to use optional version of ghostcript.
If that is not the case, then ghostscript has to be replaced.
P.S. I am not a hylafax user so I can not determine what should be done.
Everyone,
Thanks so much for everyone's help !!!!
I am a new hylafax+ user and other than the ghostscript problem I am very impressed. Hylafax+ does allow you to control the location of ghostscript so once I get it compiled I should be able to point it to the correct version. Instead of using the Fedora RPM, I am going to compile it and try to route the files to a different location. I really screwed up a different system trying to do an rpm install with a Fedora module with a different piece of software. I am a little gun shy about doing that again.
I am using Hylafax+ on CentOS 5.9 to replace a vsifax system installed on SCO. If I can get ghostscript 9.07 installed properly this will be a very good replacement.
If any of you have additional suggestions, I sure appreciate your help.
