Please see the discussion at
https://github.com/avahi/avahi/issues/516

The Qt bindings are basically unmaintained and had no reverse 
dependencies in Debian, which is why they were removed in Debian:
https://salsa.debian.org/utopia-team/avahi/-/commit/346aa63ebc5c0aa7aad0127adb0b0167d5f6a422

I'd rather not re-introduce them at this point until its maintenance 
status has been decided.
