Yes it should. I assume a Speicherzugriffsfehler is a segmentation
fault or an assertion failure or something? If so, then that's
gnome-control-center crashing, which it shouldn't be doing even if
avahi-daemon is missing or broken (and ideally even if avahi-daemon is
intended to be a hard dependency, which I suspect it isn't).
