For instance: FILES /home/lennart/tmp/avahi/etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf: the default con‐ figuration file for avahi-daemon, avahi-daemon.conf(5) for more infor‐ mation. /home/lennart/tmp/avahi/etc/avahi/hosts: additional static hostname mappings to publish in mDNS, see avahi.hosts(5) for more information. /home/lennart/tmp/avahi/etc/avahi/services/*.service: static service definitions, see avahi.service(5) for more information. ...other places in the manpage have similar references.
fwiw, this is in: avahi-0.6.31-5.fc17.x86_64

This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
The problem persists in Fedora 19, specifically avahi-0.6.31-11.fc19.i686. Someone should update the Version field accordingly so that this bug remains open. Alas, I cannot.
Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
Per comment #4, the problem persists in Fedora 19, specifically avahi-0.6.31-11.fc19. Someone should update the Version field accordingly and reopen the bug. Alas, I cannot. Perhaps the original reporter (Jeff Layton <jlayton>) can?
OK, I've cloned this into bug #991094 since it's definitely still a problem in current Fedora releases.
