| I have started using the openSUSE build service and just made new packages of ghostpdl-1.54 for opensuse 10.3 to 11.1, i586 and x86_64 for each.

...the included pcl2fax script outputs data that hylafax does not have
to translate or convert at all to fax it so theres no wasted cpu.

Well, after you generate a PCL file, sure, you can filter it through
pcl2fax on its way to Hylafax, or you can let Hylafax itself invoke the
filtering (using the following entry in the typerules file).  It uses no
more and no less CPU cycles.

0  short  0x1b45  tiff  pcl6 -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=tiffg3 -sOutputFile=- %i > %o

I've not packaged OSR 6.0.0 binaries of pcl6(1.54), but anyone wanting
them can drop me a line.
