This is not the appropriate place to report this. To do this properly we should patch OpenSSH to do the Avahi registration itself. But I fear the OpenSSH would not be willing to merge such a patch. Right now we do mDNS/DNS-SD publishing of the SSH service by dropping a static service definition file in /etc/avahi. It's just an xml file. Including the SSH server key in that file automatically is not really possible. I am reassigning this now to ssh, let's see what the ssh maintainers have to say about this.

But I am really afraid this code would not be accepted upstream especially if some of the dependencies would be GPL licensed.

Which is GPL & Academic. Also, that dependency would be completely optional. I'd expect a refusal however due to more fundamental issues. i.e. mDNS /DNS-SD is this unreliable, untrusted protocol that is used to spam the local network about the existance of a service. Security people tend to stay away from technology like that and normally don't see the usefulness of this. Yes, i know, I am not selling this very well right now.... Let's hope I am mistaken.

Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.

Fedora 11 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

Currently openssh doesn't advertise itself dynamically or statically when installed. It can be done statically by copying the example file from /usr/share/doc/avahi-daemon/examples to /etc/avahi/services or by using the avahi-publish command. avahi-publish could be ran from the SSH init script, or this service file can be installed by the openssh- server package. This can be done dynamically by patching openssh, but there would have to be a buy in from upstream to do this.
