Description Mark Austin 2007-03-07 18:28:12 UTC
If a user wishes to user zeroconf on combination with avahi with the mdnsresponder-compat flag turned on, ksysguard will depend on unnecessary package mDNSResponder when the zeroconf flag is enabled. 

kdelibs will not depend on the old package with zeroconf on which is good I believe that ksysguard is the problem. To fix it for the moment, I've hard to tell ksysguard not to include zeroconf while telling kdelibs to include zeroconf.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install avahi with mdnsresponder-compat flag on
2. Install kdelibs and ksysguard with zeroconf turned on
3. You will then be told the mDNSResponder is blocking avahi

Actual Results:  
You will then be told the mDNSResponder is blocking avahi

Expected Results:  
You will then be told the mDNSResponder is blocking avahi

I believe the mdnsresponder-compat flasg is supposed to make mDNSResponder obsolete to begin with. Please correct me if I am wrong. Thank you.
