sobby (unlike obby) does not have a howl use flag to specify whether zeroconf shall be supported or not. When emerging it on a system that does not have a zeroconf environment set up, when trying to start sobby, the following error occurs: # /etc/init.d/sobby start > mDNSResponder > * ERROR: Some services needed are missing. Run > * './sobby broken' for a list of those > * services. "sobby" was not started. # /etc/init.d/sobby broken > mDNSResponder please add this dependency to the ebuild. thanks.

this really needs to be taken care of.... thanks
Please emerge howl, and USE="howl" flag.
Created attachment 100330 [details] sobby-init-0.2.0 Please copy this over the init you have and test to see if it works.
Changing "need mDNSResponder" to "use mDNSResponder" fixes the problem. Can we apply the change and get back to stable-marking? :)
Fixed. thanks for the input.
Forgot to close the bug :)
