Consider packaging mod_dnssd! ;-)

Are you aware of this more or less complete list of software
supporting Avahi natively?

http://avahi.org/wiki/Avah4users#SoftwareMakinguseofAvahi

Does Mandrive package Rhythmbox or VLC? If yes, consider enabling
native support in those packages, too. And please note that there is
kdnssd-avahi which enables current KDE versions to make use of
Avahi. And finally, there's nss-mdns, which shouldn't be left out,
either.

Thanks,
