[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#841926: avahi-daemon crashes with "Out of memory, aborting ..."

[Marc Haber]

Package: avahi-daemon
Version: 0.6.32-2
Followup-For: Bug #841926

I see the same issue on my local firewall. My difference is that the
crash doesn't happen "immediately", but frequently at night during a
time where the system is idle.

My system is a 384 MB KVM VM that does not seem under memory pressure (>
100 MB memory free, > 150 MB memory in disk cache). I have increased the
memory to 512 MB, and have also doubled the data and stack rlimit from
the package defaults. Will try to remember reporting back whether this
has helped.

Greetings
Marc
