FYI the meta-intel-iot-middleware repository is no longer being actively maintained, however coincidentally I am currently in the process of updating and moving the useful pieces elsewhere. mdns wasn't on my list, however I have just tried to fix it up, here is what I have so far: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-intel-iot-middleware/commit/?h=paule/mdns-upgrade-1&id=7389dd6b1d3e69a05b8fa62673ba03b2a91073ff Unfortunately I hit a linking issue - the dns-sd binary gets linked to the unversioned libdns_sd.so symlink, which (correctly) is packaged in the -dev package, but as a result you get a do_package_qa failure (and probably runtime issues). Moving the .so symlink into the main package wouldn't be the right thing to do, so the fix should be made elsewhere. I don't have any more time to poke at it but I'm guessing it's not that hard to fix if you're familiar with this kind of problem. (The issues we've been dealing with here are unfortunately par for the course when building makefile-only software.) I'd probably recommend going the avahi route as suggested by Ross in his reply, but if you absolutely need mDNSResponder then maybe this will get you some way towards that.
