RB:s own share is showing up under Source.

Please describe the problem: The share exported by RB is showing up under Source (using howl). Steps to reproduce: Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
Are you using an ipv6 network address?
I'm on an ipv4 network but /sbin/ifconfig shows both an ipv4 and an ipv6 adress (Don't know if that is relevant but...)
What version of RB are you using?
Iäm using RB compiled from HEAD on 2006-02-21. /J
This is a Howl issue, which is unfixable without changing it's API. If there is a service-name collision, Howl will rename the service without telling the application, and we have no way of knowing whether it is ours or not. The best solution is not to use Howl ;)
Unfixable in howl but I think using gnome_vfs_adress_equal in rb-daap-mdns-browser-howl.c:host_is_local() would solve it too. I disabled it because it is new in 2.14. Johan, if you have gnome-vfs 2.13.x could you try uncommenting the line at the FIXME and rebuild and see if that solves the problem?
(In reply to comment #5) > This is a Howl issue, which is unfixable without changing it's API. The problem is that it can't be a name collision because RB is the only instance on this network sharing music at this moment.

I cannot test this at this moment as I don't have 2.13 of gnome-vfs installed. I'm usinf FC4 but will install FC5 on one box as soon as I have the time to do so. BTW: An upgrade of howl to 1.0 didn't help.
I'm pretty sure the fix for bug 342655 prevents this from occurring. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 342655 ***
