Artnet broadcast call

I'm running an Arduino Mega with Ethernet Shield, connected to a couple of meters of WS2812b leds (and appropriate power supply). I can control the leds directly in code - using FastLED - but when I try compiling ArtNet it fails at EthernetUDP. I've tried multiple different libraries that contain EthernetUDP, and even Ethernet2 to see if that changes things, but it just won't complete :

arx::artnet::Manager}' has no member named 'setBroadcast'
artnet.setBroadcast(broadcast);

/*
This example will receive multiple universes via Artnet and control a strip of ws2811 leds via
Adafruit's NeoPixel library: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_NeoPixel

Where did you get the ArtNet library?

Thanks for asking. I've tried the library version (manage library, search Artnet), natcl's - GitHub - natcl/Artnet: An Art-Net library for Teensy, Arduino and ESP boards - branch, hideakitai's - GitHub - hideakitai/ArtNet: Art-Net Sender/Receiver for Arduino (Ethernet, WiFi) - branch and tobiasebsen's - GitHub - tobiasebsen/ArtNode: Art-Net library for Arduino, Teensy, etc. - branch.
I'm pretty sure I'm lacking an accompanying library or the version I'm using isn't compatible, but it won't upload to my Mega.

Why do you believe the call to setBroadcast is necessary? I assume the library would handle that detail for you.
