mDNSResponder and libthai are small leaf dependencies which provide

+ libthai binary packages combined) acceptable for everyone and not worth
adding additional complexity to the port.
Is it possible to use Avahi instead of mDNSResponder with fresh KDE?
mDNSResponder is not ready to IPv6, which is used in our neighborhood, and
running avahi-daemon and mDNSd at same machine lead to duplicate names.
You can deinstall mDNSResponder and install avahi with the libdns_sd
compatibility turned on (the avahi port has an option for that) and things
should just work, but if you're going to recompile kdelibs afterwards, you
will additionally need to add the avahi include dirs to CXXFLAGS so kdelibs
will find the mDNSResponder compatibility header and enable the feature.
We couldn't depend on avahi in kdelibs in the past in order to maintain
FreeBSD 4.x compatibility, which isn't an issue anymore, so we might switch
the dependency over to avahi properly at some point.
