Bug description:
After installing Ubuntu 14.04 (Release: 14.04) and looking for other
information in /var/log/syslog, I see that syslog is being flooded by
"Invalid response packet from host" messages from avahi-daemon.
I searched around to see why this might be and ran across the following avahi
mailing list post along with a patch to fix it:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/avahi/2012-July/002171.html
>>>
I would say you can safely ignore it, since any machine on your
network running a recent OSX version will cause these messages.
Here's a patch with what we change to avoid these messages flooding
syslog.
