No the postinst script does the right thing. Why ? Because avahi isn't normally
started via the normal /etc/rc*.d symlink, so invoke-rc.d just doesn't work for
avahi. 

Putting avahi in both /etc/init.d/ and /etc/dbus/event.d was a choice of
the original packager, which has both it's good and bad sides :)
