I have just come across https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=766045 whichs says that a) there is a fork at https://github.com/PeteDavidson/t38modem b) t38modem (I guess only the old version) won't work with current opal http://sourceforge.net/p/opalvoip/mailman/message/32955378/ . I guess since it is too late for Stretch now and we will likely have to upgrade opal sooner or later I think the only way forward will be the fork. Would you be willing to maintain this? I haven't received or sent a fax in 5+ years, I cannot test this. Bernhard
