Environment: FreeBSD 14-STABLE amd64 3.2.0 and 3.2.1 both fail to enable the selected mDNSResponder option. Reverting to 3.1.18 results in working zeroconf (_afpovertcp service is advertised via mDNS). Without this advertisement, macOS clients cannot find their backup server. The difference appears to be the meson build. 'make -v PORT_OPTIONS' confirms that MDNSRESPONDER is set. 'make configure' and reviewing the meson output shows the following: ---- Run-time dependency avahi-client found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake) Library dns_sd found: NO Library system found: NO meson.build:782: WARNING: Zeroconf (Bonjour) support requested but required libraries not found Please install Avahi or mDNS ---- The mDNSResponder dns_sd library and header files are both in the standard locations under ${LOCALBASE}. Without attempting to learn meson from scratch, this is as far as I could go. Thank you for maintaining this port!

Fixed in 3.2.1_1.
(In reply to Joe Marcus Clarke from comment #3) 3.2.1_1 'works for me' :-) Builds and runs fine for my purposes. Service is advertised properly via mDNS. Thanks Joe!
