Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: efax

The command `fax send 0123456 foo.ps` usually doesn't terminate after
successfully sending a fax and hanging up.  (I verify that it has hung
up by pressing the speaker button on the phone and getting a dial-tone.
The faxes are going through.)

I end up having to use ps and kill -9 to stop the processes, then I have
to rm the lockfile manually (or else I have to do that before I try it
again).

On rare occasions, it does terminate after sending and hanging up and it
always (I think) terminates when it finishes unsuccessfully.

(I first reported this to Debian in 2004: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=270642 )
