Title:
  Avahi needs to be restarted after boot to broadcast netatalk services

Status in “avahi” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When I boot my server, it doesn't broadcast netatalk services. I have to manually restart avahi with:
    restart avahi-daemon

  Once I do this, the server shows up instantly in the Finder of my Mac.

  The problem is pretty much exactly the same as reported by the person here:
    http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1482573
  The only difference is that the person here fixed it by installing packages from Debian Testing, which is something I'm wary of.

  
  I added a file /etc/avahi/services/afpd.service, with the following contents:
  <?xml version="1.0" standalone='no'?><!--*-nxml-*-->
  <!DOCTYPE service-group SYSTEM "avahi-service.dtd">
  <service-group>
  <name replace-wildcards="yes">%h</name>
  <service>
  <type>_afpovertcp._tcp</type>
  <port>548</port>
  </service>
  <service>
  <type>_device-info._tcp</type>
  <port>0</port>
  <txt-record>model=Xserve</txt-record>
  </service>
  </service-group>

  And there is no .local domain on my network that is causing problems
  with avahi starting.
