[Solved] avahi 0.6.29 not working on IPv6 ?

SOLVED: with the 0.6.30 relase

After the latest update of avahi, my services are no longer announced on IPv6.

Does any abody else have this problem ?

Below is an excerpt of my /etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf

[server]
use-ipv4=yes
use-ipv6=yes
enable-dbus=yes
disallow-other-stacks=no
ratelimit-interval-usec=1000000
ratelimit-burst=1000
deny-interfaces=vmbridge,tap0,tap1,eth1

[wide-area]
enable-wide-area=yes

[publish]
disable-publishing=no
add-service-cookie=yes
publish-hinfo=yes
publish-workstation=yes
publish-domain=yes

And below is the output of avahi-daemon

# avahi-daemon --debug

Downgrading to 0.6.28, avahi is working fine with IPv6

Yes.  It's an upstream bug, apparently.
Google for avahi 0.6.29 IPv6.
