Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla at FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-gnome mailing list
<gnome at FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback:
Bug 247378: www/epiphany: remove unnecessary dependency on net/avahi-app
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=247378



--- Description ---
Upstream of the epiphany removed dependency from avahi in 2016, check NEWS file
(/usr/ports/www/epiphany/work/epiphany-3.28.5/NEWS):
3.23.1 - October 24, 2016
=========================

Epiphany has been relicensed from GPLv2+ to GPLv3+.

New dependency:
 libhttpseverywhere

Removed dependencies:
 avahi-client, avahi-gobject, gdk-x11-3.0, gsettings-desktop-schemas, x11


Build fine with avahi installed and without, and I didn't find any binary from
the epiphany linked with libavahi-gobject.so.
