Description Eugen Dedu 2008-10-20 07:59:22 UTC 
Hi,

One of my colleagues has just installed ekiga svn 7205 on windows vista.  I know I cannot connect to exterior world because of the NAT type.  I wanted to use Neighbours, but it is not shown in the roster.

Yes, from configure.ac :
dnl ###############################
dnl   Avahi / mDNS Support
dnl ###############################
AVAHI="disabled"

if test "x${gm_platform}" != "xmingw" ; then
  AC_ARG_ENABLE(avahi, [  --disable-avahi               Disable mDNS support],,enable_avahi=yes)

  if test "x$enable_avahi" = "xyes"; then
    PKG_CHECK_MODULES([AVAHI], [avahi-client >= 0.6 avahi-glib >= 0.6], [found_avahi=yes])
    AC_SUBST(AVAHI_CFLAGS)
    AC_SUBST(AVAHI_LIBS)
    AVAHI="enabled"
    AC_DEFINE(HAVE_AVAHI,1,[Avahi support])
  fi
fi

AM_CONDITIONAL(HAVE_AVAHI, test "x$found_avahi" = "xyes")


In fact, avahi doesn't exist on win32 (see http://avahi.org/ticket/123 ). Apple's bonjour does exist, but we don't have code for that.

Setting the priority as low... it's not that we're not interested, it's that it depends on an external project :-(
