Bug description:
Binary package hint: gfax

ubuntu 10.04
gfax 0.7.7+ds-1

with the source version gfax 0.7.7 there is a postinstall.sh script that you run to finalise the install.

This script:
- creates  /var/spool/gfax and sets its permissions. Without this dir gfax crashes on startup.

- adds a gfax printer to CUPS so users can print from any appliction

- registers gfax in gnome.

0.7.7+ds1from the repository only performs the last action leaving you unable to start gfax and without the printer.

I've seen this both on a 9.10 => 10.04 upgrade (installing gfax for the first time in 10.04) and on a 10.04 clean install.

postinstall.sh is attached. Running the script after installing from repositories (you must also restart cups after running the script) should fix both problems.
