Review request for kdelibs, KTorrent, Joris Guisson, and Thiago Macieira.


Description
-------

This is my attempt to fix the crash. As far as I followed the code, the crash is \
because of m_group == 0 in serverStateChanged() when the avahi server is initially \
"registering" or in "collision", and not "running" yet. When e.g. KTorrent starts, it \
is possible that the avahi server needs some time until it is fully setup. The \
m_group is initialized when the first tryApply() is called, which only happens when \
server is initially in "running" state.

Additionally, the m_running variable was never reset to false in stop(), so the \
(sync) publish() would never return on failure.


This addresses bug 215288.

Testing
-------

I have no idea what avahi is or how it works, so I did not test it.


Thanks,
