Bug#450520: Perhaps close this?
Michael, since I ushare hasn't yet made it into Debian, I might offer a little advice.
One of the original goals when I intended to package ushare for Debian was to get INOTIFY/DNOTIFY support in so that restarts weren't required to receive new media notification events. However, I found a number of other problems in using this software - various items in the configuration file were ignored completely and only permitted as command line arguments (despite being documented for the configuration file).
ushare isn't building quite so happily for me any more, and in about a weeks' time will hit three years since it was released.
I'm tempted to advise closing this and suggesting the use of minidlna instead. It meets the original goal of having DNOTIFY support as well as being lightweight and headless in operation. I've not had any trouble with building it, configuring it or using it.
Since the ushare site declares development as discontinued, it may be preferable to use minidlna instead.
Regards,
rob.
