[Bug 875159] Re: Error upgrading avahi-daemon while updating from 11.04 to 11.10

[Brent Spillner]

Looks like it's just missing a symlink in /etc/init.d... no idea if it
was there before I started the upgrade, but it's certainly not now
(upgrade complete, just waiting to reboot.)

Given the general irrelevance of avahi for most setups I'd say this is a
pretty minor issue, but it might perhaps confuse some users... at any
rate, I'd expect the (un)installation script to be more resilient.
