Log Message:
Update to 0.6.15
* Check that netlink messages actually originate from the kernel
and not another process.
* Fix build on NetBSD (thanks to Daniel S. Haischt)
* Fix dbus_service_browser not setting AVAHI_LOOKUP_RESULT_OUR_OWN.
* Fix a segfault in the code handling static host name registrations
* Add a few new entries to the service type database
* s/D-?BUS/D-Bus/g
* Documentation updates
* Fix service type database building on Solaris
* Make use of newer D-Bus APIs
* Fix random seed initialization
* Install SFTP static service file by default
* Other minor code cleanups
* Add a new D-Bus method for changing the mDNS host name during
runtime. This functionality is only available to members of the
UNIX group "netdev", which is the same access group that is
enforced by GNOME's NetworkManager daemon. Since NM will probably
be the most prominent user of this new method, we decided to limit
access to the same group. The access group can be set by passing
--with-avahi-priv-access-group= to "configure". If you need more
sophisticated access control you can freely edit
/etc/dbus/system.d/avahi-dbus.conf.
* Add a new utility "avahi-set-host-name" which is a command line
wrapper around the aforementioned SetHostName() method.
* Bonjour API compatibility library:
* Implement DNSServiceUpdateRecord()
* Allow passing NULL as callback function for
DNSServiceRegister()
* Implement subtype registration in DNSServiceRegister() in a
way that is compatible with Bonjour.
* Update to newer copy of dns_sd.h
* If the host name changes update names of static services wich
contain wildcards.
* Don't build documentation about embedding the Avahi mDNS stack into
other programs by default. This is a feature used only by embedded
developers. Pass --enable-core-docs to "configure" to enable
building these docs, like in Avahi <= 0.6.12.
* Build Qt documentation only when Qt support is enabled in
the configuration. Same for GLib.
* Change algorithm used to find a new host name on conflict. In
Avahi <= 0.6.12 a conflicting host name of "foobar" would be
changed to the new name "foobar2". With 0.6.13 "foobar-2" \
will be
picked instead. This follows Bonjour's behaviour and has the
advantage not confusing people with regular host names ending in
digits.
* Don't disable all static services when SIGHUP is recieved.
* Fix build when Avahi is configured without Gtk+ but with Python
support
* Fix build on MacOS X
* Support using Solaris DBM instead of gdbm for the service type
database. The latter is still recommended
* Minor other fixes and documentation updates
* Compatibility with newer D-Bus releases (0.9x)
* Compatibility with DBUS builds with --disable-checks
* Fix an error in the DBUS event loop wrapping which
caused the avahi client libraries to dispatch some events
too late when used with D-BUS 0.62 and newer.
* avahi-daemon: fix a minor memory leak in the DBUS code.
* avahi-glib: some GLIB adapter cleanups
* avahi-dnsconfd: fix segfault when passing an invalid command
line option
* avahi-test: portability patches for Solaris
* avahi-browse: flush STDOUT after each line, making it useful
in shell scripts.
* update service type database
* Ported to Solaris
* avahi-sharp: fix a fatal error in object disposal code
* add a few new entries to the servivce type database
* fix potential crash when the daemon shuts down
* compatibility with newer autoconf versions
