*** Quick install instructions (tested on Debian/Ubuntu only!) ***

While "configure" and "make" may be run as normal user all other commands
need to be run as root.

Configure the build system:
	$ ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var

Some configure options available:

    --disable-gtk            disable GTK+ tools                (default: enabled)
    --disable-dbus           disable DBUS support              (default: enabled)
    --disable-python         disable building python modules   (default: enabled)
    --with-dbus-sys=<dir>    where D-BUS system.d directory is
    --with-distro=<distro>   the target Linux distribution (one of redhat,
                                    suse, gentoo, debian or slackware)
    --with-avahi-user=<user> User for running the Avahi daemon (avahi)
    --with-avahi-group=<grp> Group for Avahi (avahi)

    Please note that by disabling DBUS you lose the ability to publish and browse
    services from local applications.

    Please note that Avahi currently ships with a init scripts for only a few
    distributions. if yours is not supported right now, YMMV. Patches welcome.

	$ make
	# make install
	# ldconfig

Add a user an a group for avahi. (Debian specific)
	# addgroup --system avahi
	# adduser --system --no-create-home --ingroup avahi avahi

Ask DBUS to re-read its policies:
	# kill -HUP `cat /var/run/dbus/pid`

Now start the Avahi daemon:
	# /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon start

Optionally start the unicast DNS configuration daemon:
	# /etc/init.d/avahi-dnsconfd start

To start the two daemons at boot time on Debian based distributions:
	with DBUS support:
	# ln -s /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon /etc/dbus-1/event.d/75avahi-daemon
	# ln -s /etc/init.d/avahi-dnsconfd /etc/dbus-1/event.d/76avahi-dnsconfd

	without DBUS support:
	# update-rc.d avahi-daemon defaults 25 15
	# update-rc.d avahi-dnsconfd defaults 26 14

If you plan to use avahi-autoipd you have to create the user/group
"avahi-autoipd" much the same way as "avahi".
