Bug#588395: Porting Mumble to Avahi

Hi,

Unlike Avahi, DNSSD is available on multiple platforms, including Linux, 
OSX and Windows. Porting it would therefore mean dropping support for 
other platforms, or having two implementations. Neither of these options 
are very appealing.

That being said, LAN service discovery is a "nice to have" feature, but 
is by no means essential. If you truly wish to drop support for the 
compat library, we can disable support for LAN discovery in Mumble when 
building for Debian.

Regards,
Thorvald
