As far as I can see, we have two global useflags: avahi - Add avahi/Zeroconf support zeroconf - Support for DNS Service Discovery (DNS-SD) "Zeroconf" describes a service autodiscovery and autoconfiguration standard= ,=20 see [1]. Avahi is the implementation of that standard which we have in the= =20 portage tree [2]. Other implementations are mDNSResponder (which was in the= =20 tree some time ago but got kicked out) and Apple's Bonjour (which never was= in=20 the tree and probably never will be). I would like to suggest unifying use-flag usage, and use "zeroconf" anywher= e. Opinions?
