Had same problem in Feisty
Still have same problem in Gutsy current (dist-upgraded Feisty --> Gutsy)
This is not limited to Gajim, as others have said
My avahi services do not get started reliably. Sometimes, after
rebooting, they start. 4 out of 5 times, they do not. I will give some
outputs of relevant logs for when they start and when they don't start
below.
First, a workaround or solution until this gets fixed:
I found that restarting the avahi services using "/etc/init.d/avahi-daemon
restart" did NOT help
Just by luck, I noticed that if I modify /etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf, the
daemon detects this change and reloads itself. After reloading, my services
work properly.
So, I added a simple command "sleep 2 && touch /etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf" to
the 'start' case of /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon (line 56), as shown below:
d_start() {
modprobe capability >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
$DAEMON -c && return 0
if [ -e ${DISABLE_TAG} ]; then
# Disabled because of the existance of an unicast .local domain
log_warning_msg "avahi-daemon disabled because there is a unicast .local
domain"
exit 0;
fi;
$DAEMON -D
## Added to force reload of avahi-daemon.conf and therefore reliable
establishment of services
sleep 2 && touch /etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf
## End added command
}
Now my syslog looks like this (and services work):

........and that's it .... it never says "Service blah-blah-blah

My services, syslog, dmesg and avahi-daemon.conf are attached.
