Ah. How good to know!

I never used it for printing, but would like to find out how it works. I have a Laserprinter and it is cool if I can print on it from my old Macs. So I will look into it.

If you have more tips, wishes or requirements. Please let me know.

Thanks!
What version of the RPi OS are you running? As you can see in a subsequent post in that thread, Bullseye or older will require different steps to build netatalk.

Couldn't resist to give it a try ...
Installed netatalk-2.4.4.
Followed the meson tutorial.
Had to install two extra packages:

apt install libdb-dev
apt install libgcrypt20-dev

Nicely done!

If you haven't done this already, I would recommend you also install and build with: libssl-dev (for DHX secure Classic Mac OS auth), libcups2-dev (for AppleTalk printing), libavahi-client-dev (for Zeroconf service discovery) and libpam0g-dev (for more secure auth.)
