I chose uid/gid of 85 for this:

/etc/passwd:avahi:x:85:85:User for Avahi:/dev/null:/bin/false
/etc/group:avahi:x:85:

I guess rc.M is the place for this:

# Start avahidaemon
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.avahidaemon ]; then
/etc/rc.d/rc.avahidaemon start
fi
# Start avahidnsconfd
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.avahidnsconfd ]; then
/etc/rc.d/rc.avahidnsconfd start
fi

and then rc.K ??

# Stop avahidnsconfd
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.avahidnsconfd ]; then
/etc/rc.d/rc.avahidnsconfd stop
fi
# Stop avahidaemon
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.avahidaemon ]; then
/etc/rc.d/rc.avahidaemon stop
fi
This resolve the avahi problem.
Thanks

And this resolve the mounting problem.
Now my XFCE 4.8 is nearly perfect.

Thanks.

Robby added glib-networking to XFCE 4.8:

Added glib-networking
Upgraded libsoup to 2.34.3
This is used for what in XFCE 4.8?

glib-networking is used by libsoup. i know the screenshooter is using it, but Robby has patched it not to need it. libsoup is also needed by gvfs which recent thunar releases use for mounting remote shares and stuff which i suppose is why its there.

I recently updated all of the Xfce 4.8 + deps + extra packages and ran into a little problem with firefox. Firefox refused to launch. Renamed ~/.mozilla, safe mode, new user ... same issue. removepkg libproxy allowed Firefox to launch and run normally.

Ended having to recompile Firefox with --enable-libproxy, which fixed the issue. Anyone else have this problem?

I do not install Robby's binary packages, instead I use the (mostly) unmodified SlackBuilds. Just changing CFLAGS and NUMJOBS. So this could be my local problem.

Yes, had the same problem with Mr. Workman's new glib-networking package. Deleted it (removepkg) and the problem went away.

libsoup *can* be used by gvfs, definitely not a hard dep. Just a configure flag away, like some of this other 'optional' stuff :-)

The new libsoup somehow screw with some FF versions; I don't have any issues using the FF7beta builds, but at least 5.x is bad. I'll put the old libsoup package back in a few days (I'm out of town right now).

As I said a couple of posts back, removing the glib-networking package (not libsoup) solved the problem, at least with Firefox 6.0.

That's because libsoup depends on glib-networking. When you remove glib-networking, libsoup no longer functions correctly. The underlying problem is libsoup ;)

Can be fixed by recompiling Firefox with --enable-libsoup, downgrading libsoup, or upgrading Firefox.

Whatever for? Wouldn't it be the other way around?

Code:

checking whether gcc understands -Wundef... yes
checking for glib-networking (glib TLS implementation)... no
configure: error: libsoup requires glib-networking for TLS support.

If you are building a package, you can pass --disable-tls-check to
allow building libsoup anyway (since glib-networking is not actually
required at compile time), but you should be sure to add a runtime
dependency on it.

^ Thanks!
:hattip:

Isn't libsoup used for something else? I know Alien Bob made a libsoup package available in June of 2010.

Well, I installed 4.8.x, yet again, and it was running fine for a day or two. After recently running KDE for several hours I got tired of it, as usually happens, and then ran xwmconfig, picked Xfce, rebooted, and fired it up. Now the the volume up/down and mute keys of the keyboard no longer work.
I reinstalled the xfce4-volumed daemon, built from the script over at SlackBuilds.org, but no luck, still doesn't work. Oh, well, add it to the list of instabilities in 4.8.
