Bug#591163: [pkg-ggz-maintainers] Bug#591163: ggz-kde-client: FTBFS: Nonexistent build-dependency: libavahi-compat-howl-dev
Apparently, avahi (0.6.27-1) has introduced this issue by an incomplete check of reverse dependencies in Debian: Development of the original Howl implementation has been discontinued and there are no more reverse dependencies in the Debian archive since lenny. Nevertheless, I understand the reason to drop Howl and will update the packaging metadata accordingly in the pkg-ggz SVN. Am Sonntag, 1.

You're welcome to contribute! About the archive rebuild: The rebuild was done on about 50 AMD64 nodes of the Grid'5000 platform, using a clean chroot. Internet was not accessible from the build systems.

Probably because I checked for binary dependencies only, so the build dep slipped through. I double-checked now, and thankfully ggz-kde-client is the only package affected by this. As Josef agreed to update the package, I will keep the Howl compat package removed.

As Josef agreed to update the package, I will keep the Howl compat package removed. As it seems, ggz-kde-client did build-depend on libavahi-compat-howl-dev, but due to the configure check being broken, Zeroconf was not enabled (this is from the buildd log): checking for sw_discovery_init in -lhowl... yes checking howl/howl_config.h usability... no checking howl/howl_config.h presence... no checking for howl/howl_config.h... no configure: WARNING: Zeroconf diabled, libhowl (headers) not found. So, if nobody complained about missing Zeroconf support until now, the simplest fix is to just drop the libavahi-compat-howl-dev build-dep.
