     <description>
       <p>The Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD daemon implements Apple's Zeroconf
       architecture (also known as "Rendezvous" or "Bonjour"). The daemon
       registers local IP addresses and static services using
       mDNS/DNS-SD and provides two IPC APIs for local programs to make
       use of the mDNS record cache the avahi-daemon maintains. First
       there is the so called "simple protocol" which is used
       exclusively by avahi-dnsconfd (a daemon which configures unicast
       DNS servers using server info published via mDNS) and nss-mdns
       (a libc NSS plugin, providing name resolution via mDNS). Finally
       there is the D-Bus interface which provides a rich object
       oriented interface to D-Bus enabled applications.</p>

       <p>Upon startup avahi-daemon interprets its configuration file
       <file>@pkgsysconfdir@/avahi-daemon.conf</file> and reads XML
       fragments from <file>@servicedir@/*.service</file> which may
       define static DNS-SD services. If you enable
       <opt>publish-resolv-conf-dns-servers</opt> in
       <file>avahi-daemon.conf</file> the file
       <file>/etc/resolv.conf</file> will be read, too.</p>
