[Bug 306006] Re: service-discovery-applet shows redundant services when multiple NICs active

[Noel J. Bergman]

Looking at the code, and I am neither a python expert nor a gtk expert,
it appears that a suitable change can be made around line 320 in
service-discovery-applet.

The code there is:

	menuitem = gtk.MenuItem(name, False)
	self.zc_types[type].add(menuitem)
	self.zc_services[(interface, protocol, name, type, domain)] = menuitem
	menuitem.connect("activate", self.menuitem_response,interface, protocol, name, type, domain)
	menuitem.show_all()

When we actually connect to a service, the code is:

      self.plugin.plugins[type][0].connect(self.use_host_names, name,
type, host, address, port, txts)

with no use of the interface.

It seems to me that we should either modify the menu building code to
filter out duplicates, or else put the interface name in the menu if
someone thinks it will be significant (which it clearly is not at this
time).
