[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#528580: avahi-daemon need 19 hours to deinstall

[Michelle Konzack]

Package: avahi-daemon
Version: 0.6.23-3lenny1
Severity: important

Hello Maintainer,

the avahi-daemon is required by some packages like "sun-java6-jre" which
is the last crap and I have tried to deinstall the whole thing:

michelle1:~# apt-get --purge remove avahi-daemon gsfonts-x11 libnss-mdns sun-jav
a6-plugin libavahi-core5 libdaemon0 sun-java6-bin odbcinst1debian1 sun-java6-jre
 unixodbc java-common

The following packages will be REMOVED:
  avahi-daemon* gsfonts-x11* java-common* libavahi-core5* libdaemon0*
  libnss-mdns* odbcinst1debian1* sun-java6-bin* sun-java6-jre*
  sun-java6-plugin* unixodbc*
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 11 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
After this operation, 102MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]?

and now it hangs forever and I can not kill this crap (^C does not work)

It took 19 hours because  "avahi-daemon"  has  unrequested  accessed  my
29 TByte Debian-Archive mirror, my  ${HOME}  Server  with   2 TByte,  my
Multimedia Server 18 TByte and Devel File-Server with 16 TByte.

It has blocked my whole Workstation and I was not able to stop it.

Because I was not willing to HARD reset my system, to avoid an  excessiv
fsck run, it was running the whole day today.

Please can you make a it more secure to prevent access to NFS shares?

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
