+Avahi 0.6.21
+============
+
+This is an important bugfix release.
+
+ * Make avahi-autoipd actually produce correct ARP packets
+ (Identified and patched by Pauline Yeung)
+ * Add FreeBSD kqueue support for watching /etc/avahi/services
+ (Contributed by Marcus Clarke)
+ * Use search domain from /etc/resolv.conf as additional browse
+ domains.
+ * No longer return a conflict error when two local applications
+ register identical RRs.
+ * Properly find alternative service/host names for very long names
+ * DNS name compression fix (Sjoerd Simons)

+
+This is a bugfix release and contains a fix for a low risk security
+vulnerability.
+
+ * Fix a local DoS vulnerability, where an assert() could be hit by
+ passing empty TXT data over D-Bus to the Avahi daemon. (Low Risk)
+ * Solaris/dbm portability fixes

+ safer and fixes a few issues with broken init systems of several
+ distributions.

+Avahi 0.6.19

+This is a bugfix release, but also adds a new component "avahi-ui-sharp".
+
+ * Rename zssh/zvnc to bssh/bvnc to avoid a name collision with another
+ free software tool, on request of the Debian developers. I hope
+ this name change early in the life of bssh/bvnc won't be too
+ difficult to handle by the distributors.
+ * Add man page for bssh/bvnc
+ * avahi-ui: fix segfault when browsing in empty domains
+ * avahi-ui: allow GTK_RESPONSE_OK, _YES and _APPLY besides _ACCEPT as

+ range in avahi-autoipd, as required by RC3927 section 2.1

+ by default. It was a bad idea in the first place. A better
+ replacement will hopefully be made available in Avahi eventually.
+ * Properly set umask before writing to /var/lib/avahi-autoipd
+ * Update .deskop files to work around KDE menu issue
+ * Various build fixes and other minor fixes and updates
+

+ for browsing for services, and a new tool "zssh" that makes use of
+ it, which allows browsing for SSH and VNC servers and starts ssh or
+ xvncviewer if one item is selected.

+ * Improve compatibility with Bonjour's libdns_sd (patch from Chris Rivera)
+ * Various updates to the service type database (based on patches from uws)

+ * Revert previous patch to check nlmsg_pid as it is bogus and breaks in

+ * Replace with new SO_PASSCRED-based check of the sending UID, which
+ seems to work better (Closes: #72)
