Package: rhythmbox
Version: 0.9.3.1-1

When a user that has installed rhythmbox (through apt-get, which does not 
pull in Recommends:) starts up the application he gets a warning in STDERR:

(rhythmbox:25826): Rhythmbox-WARNING **: Unable to start mDNS browsing


If the user goes to Edit->Preferences->Sharing and marks 'Share my music'
another error shows up in STDERR:

(rhythmbox:25826): Rhythmbox-WARNING **: Unable to notify network of
music sharing

Users starting rhythmbox from an application menu in GNOME will *not* see
those warnings and will, indeed, wonder what does that option do (if they
don't have ahavi, nothing at all).

The application should, when that option is enabled, show a popup window
stating that it cannot do music sharing and (in Debian) state that you need
to have 'avahi-daemon' installed in order for that feature to work.

Regards

Javier
