Description Gergan Penkov 2005-11-26 15:18:26 UTC

The new avahi-0.6.1 breaks API/ABI-compatibility with the 0.5-series and
although vlc does not depend on it in the ebuild, it will be enabled by default
if the avahi-library gets found by the configure-script and will fail to compile
with the new version. 
So there are two resolutions, correct the ebuild and make it depend with use
flag on avahi-0.5* or disable it explicitely with --disable-bonjour. 
If the devs want, I could post the compilation error.
steps to reproduce install avahi-0.6.1, rebuild vlc.

Thanks for reporting, currently disabled to avoid issues, until a new solution 
is found.
