21 A-*ha*.

23 It looks like mDNSResponder was lastrited out of the main Portage tree only
24 three months ago. Presumably I "got away" with -avahi because I had
25 mDNSResponder installed previous to its removal from the Portage tree,
26 so it exists on my system as a sort of phantom (Portage knows it's installed
27 and can link stuff to it, but there's no associated ebuild).
28
29 mDNSResponder ebuilds should be obtainable from
30 http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/net-misc/mDNSResponder/?hideattic=0
31
32 As the changelog indicates that the last tweak to this package was ~6 months
33 ago, I would expect it to still compile.
34
35 If anyone from kde-sunset is still reading this thread, I would suggest adopting
36 this package into the overlay.
