This is largely a bugfix release, non-bug changes are listed separately.
- Don't log warnings about invalid packets, commonly triggered by Windows 10 systems
- Fix issue with bad packet size estimation, causing probes to continuously be sent when hosting large numbers of services (Lee, Chun-Yi)
- Fix build on Solaris/SmartOS (filio.h issue)
- Fix build on FreeBSD (PCAP_D_IN issue)
- Fix debug output with libdaemon >= 0.14
- avahi_server_set_browse_domains now correctly uses the provided list, instead of re-using the list from the configuration file
- Set nl_pid to 0, this will automatically assign the value and prevent conflicts per netlink(7). (Bug #334)
- Check for netlink pid=0 (kernel) instead of uid=0, which works correctly with network & user namespaces.
- Fix reversed IFA_LOCAL and IFA_ADDRESS checks. (Avahi#355)
- Don't fail the build on deprecated GTK/GLIB usage
- Gracefully fail if SO_REUSEPORT is not available
- Minor Python 3 update for the python ServiceTypeDatabase test usage of print, should be backwards compatible
- avahi-autoipd: Fix incorrect usage of IFLA_RTA instead of IFA_RTA which could crash on ARM (Closes: #42)
