Hello Lee,

I am new maintainer of mgetty in Fedora. I've checked conflict with my package.
At first glance it seems like there are two paths which are common for hylafax
and sendfax, it's /usr/bin/faxrm binary and it's manpage.
I'm afraid that we can't work this out using Alternatives because I believe
that each conflicting binary is manipulating another fax job queue. I will
investigate further and I will try to find some solution to this issue. 
Another problem is general confusion caused by both packages installed at the
same time. Many binaries have same names and they differ "only" by install
location in filesystem. From user point of view it might be very confusing to
see "the same" binary twice, one in /usr/bin and the other located in
/usr/sbin.
If you know already about some possible solution to these issues, please let me
know. Please feel free to correct me if I've made some mistake. I am not very
familiar with your package so far, but I will be happy to see hylafax included
in Fedora because as I read through the comments it seems that you've put some
extraordinary effort to get hylafax included.
