Package name mgetty
Date June 25th, 2007
Advisory ID MDKA-2007:065
Affected versions 2007.0, 2007.1
Synopsis Updated mgetty packages fix faxspool helper

Problem Description

The /usr/bin/faxspool script in the mgetty-sendfax package, which
can be used to convert files of various types into a format suitable
for faxing, attempted to use the 'giftoppm' program to convert .gif
files. This is a very old program which does not exist in Mandriva
Linux. This update corrects the script to call the 'giftopnm' program
instead; this is a more recent program of the same type that exists
in Mandriva Linux. This will allow the script to convert .gif images
correctly.
