However, this package is getting older and bug-prone as time passes by. The latest release is more than 2 years old. Some avahi bugfixes have been added/implemented to a new repository at: https://github.com/lathiat/avahi YP/poky/oe-core should switch to that for the next release. 50013 1 ross.burton 2015-04-01 05:57:34 +0000 Trent has now merged every patch we had apart from one touching the init scripts, and he'll be merging the full set of init script updates from Debian shortly (the remaining patch is taken from Debian). A release is due soon, once all the bitrot is fixed. 58074 2 ross.burton 2016-01-21 16:21:17 +0000 Randomly reassigning to Maxin. We need to talk to Trent and see if he's still interested in maintaining avahi in the future, if he'll make a tarball, and so on. If the github repo is dead already then switching to it is less clear-cut. 58419 3 maxin.baby.john 2016-02-02 09:59:15 +0000 Raised a pull request in github to check if the project is alive.. https://github.com/lathiat/avahi/pull/48 58816 4 maxin.baby.john 2016-02-10 10:04:19 +0000 (In reply to comment #3) > Raised a pull request in github to check if the project is alive.. > https://github.com/lathiat/avahi/pull/48 There is no reply for the mail sent to Trent - "lathiat@bur.st" and status of pull request remain open.

Thanks, That is encouraging.
