+Subject: [PATCH] Add support to advertise local services ("localhost") on the
+ local machine only
+
+This is the patch attached to Issue #125 (on Dec 6, 2017) and also
+shown in the readme.md of ippusbxd
+(https://github.com/OpenPrinting/ippusbxd).
+
+It makes also services on the loopback ("lo") interface being
+advertised and these records use "localhost" instead of the network
+host name of the machine as server host name. This way clients, like
+for example CUPS or cups-browsed will find these local services and be
+able to work with them as they were network services.
