It facilitates service discovery on a local network -- this means that you can plug your laptop or computer into a network and instantly be able to view other people who you can chat with, find printers to print to or find files being shared. This kind of technology is already found in MacOS X (branded 'Rendezvous', 'Bonjour' and sometimes 'ZeroConf') and is very convenient. . The libavahi package contains the mDNS/DNS-SD shared libraries, used by other programs. Specifically, it provides libavahi-core and libavahi-common libraries. . The libavahi-dbus-support package enables D-Bus support in avahi, needed to support the libavahi-client library and avahi-utils. . Selecting this package modifies the build configuration so that avahi packages are built with support for D-BUS enabled; it does not generate a separate binary of its own. It also automatically adds the D-Bus package to the build. libavahi-dbus-support is selected automatically if you select libavahi-client or avahi-utils.
