avahi-daemon provides functionality which is completely orthogonal to 
libsane.  There are plenty of use cases for libsane without
avahi-daemon. Thus, avahi-daemon does not fulfill the policy requirements
for a Recommended package and should be demoted to a Suggested package.

This bug is filed in an attempt to reduce the set of Recommended packages
enough for me to be able to install an ordinary desktop system without
disabling APT::Install-Recommends.


Thanks,
Bjørn
