[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#805379: avahi-daemon: Filling syslog with "Invalid response packet from host 10.18.xxx.xxx."

[Maria]

Package: avahi-daemon
Version: 0.6.32~rc+dfsg-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

after avahi-daemon in the previous version filled up daemon and syslog log-
files up to sizes of more than a GB in a few days of seldom computer use, the
update finally stopped polluting daemon log without fixing the syslog bug.

So now avahi-daemon is still polluting syslog:

"avahi-daemon[3966]: Invalid response packet from host 10.18.x.y."
The only difference to daemon log was the number in brackets which was [1212]
before. The IPs shown always start with "10.18." or "fe80::"

This is actually a security risk to my data and causing much workload taking
care of deleting the continuously growing log files. Otherwise many programs
refuses to work and I can't save my work anymore as there is no space left on
my system partition.

Due to the additional workload which I can't afford to loose the time for this
bug makes my whole
system useless so I would ask you to raise this bug to critical.

Thanks - Maria
