but if enable net-dns/avahi[howl-compat], problem solved
The ebuild should check USE flags before instead of starting an emerge
What are your emerge -pv avahi output? I don't have that USE enabled and this still builds for me: [ebuild R ~] net-dns/avahi-0.6.31-r7 USE="autoipd dbus gdbm gtk gtk3 introspection mdnsresponder-compat nls qt4 {test*} -bookmarks -doc -howl-compat -ipv6 -mono -python (-selinux) -utils" ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7" 0 KiB It probable needs at least one of the "compat" USEs to be enabled... but I would like to confirm :)
Please provide full build.log, emerge --info and emerge -pv libdmapsharing.
