package avahi-compat-howl is not available. This one is not built in avahi package - no package in SuSE Linux actually need it. It should be simple to create it: --enable-compat-howl And the create proper subpackage.

Yes please, it's not much work and it's needed by Gaim 2.0.0.
pascal did the change to support gaim-bonjour via avahi. sad point seems to be that avahi seems not to work properly.
The problem with howl/avahi is that we have already mDNSResponder runing. I dunno, if cause problems to run more than one mDNSd . It will cause at least more traffic.
Mmmm... could you give a bit more details about it, Adrian ?
For some unknown reason (to me, at least), Gaim 2.0.0-beta1 with mdns support (through
avahi-compat-howl) does not work (I got reports from users).
Weird thing is, it works on Gentoo (the user I had the report from checked my package and everything
looked just fine, exactly like the build on Gentoo). I doesn't seem to be a packaging issue.
Is avahi not interoperable with mDNSResponder ? (which would make the whole thing kind of pointless
but who knows...)
cheers
