The IPP Everywhere specification requires clients to support DNS-SD (mDNS is part of that) or WS-Discovery. Printers are required to support both DNS-SD and WS-Discovery. Avahi and systemd-resolved support DNS-SD, functionally equating DNS-SD and mDNS. Final release criterion says printing via the generic IPP driver must work. This implies discovery or you can't print. Or accept a craptastic user experience by fudging the requirement to say, well as long as an IP address works, the criterion is met. It's even less of a leap if folks can't discover other services like SMB shares. That's more common than printing. Between avahi and systemd-resolved, I'm not sure which one is more dependable for blocking on. Or whether their maintainers would be on board with such a criterion. At least for F33, Avahi is what we're using on desktops for this. Both resolve and respond are disabled in systemd-resolved so if it's better to do this with systemd-resolved, then it probably needs a Fedora 34 feature proposal. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to test-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/test@lists.fedoraproject.org
