I found media-sound/mt-daapd not work with USE="howl" (net-misc/howl-0.9.6-r2) Im tested it in x86 and ppc. USE="howl" emerge mt-daapd (can build, but iTunes cannot found shared music) USE="-howl" emerge mt-daapd (works fine) I feel current howl has problem. same problem occurs media-sound/daapd it seems to need modify DEPEND howl? (<=net-misc/howl-0.9.x) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. USE="howl" emerge mt-daapd 2. start mt-daapd 3. execute iTunes(from macosx or windows) Actual Results: mt-daapd seems start. but iTunes cannot detect shared musics.
Created attachment 65155 [details, diff] Patch to the mt-daapd ebuild This patch removes --disable-mdns from the configure flags, so that when you have USE="howl" mt-daapd compiles with howl support instead of NO mDNS support.
I have tried the patch and it is working great. With howl, I can select the NIC which mDNS is broadcast to.
0.2.3 fixed in cvs.
