[Bug 1760128] Re: package avahi-dnsconfd 0.6.32~rc+dfsg-1ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1

[Brian Murray]

I tested the version of the package from -proposed (while running avahi-
browse per the test case) and did not receive any errors.

bdmurray at clean-xenial-amd64:~$ sudo apt-get install avahi-daemon avahi-dnsconfd avahi-utils
