Cannot run Homebridge on RPI3 (Jessie)

Hello,

I’m on RPI 3 with node 5.12 installed and the latest version of homebridge. I’m unable to start homebridge and get stuck with the following error:

/usr/lib/node_modules/homebridge/node_modules/mdns/lib/dns_sd.js:35
throw ex;
^
Error: /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libavahi-client.so.3: unexpected PLT reloc type 0x36

I tried to rebuild mdns, without success.

Any idea ? Is homebridge not compatible with Jessie ?

Thank you,

You should add something to provides, e.g.

Provides: Homebridge service
