Eventually I found that just:
sudo aptitude remove avahi-autoipd
Along with:
systemctl disable avahi-daemon.service
systemctl disable avahi-daemon.socket
And possibly:
systemctl mask avahi-daemon.service
systemctl mask avahi-daemon.socket
That last one might be redundant, or possibly the last two. But I got
tired of exhaustively testing this. So I think this bug report should
be moved to be a gainst the avahi-autoipd package.
