Bug Description

Apparmor permissions do not allow avahi-daemon to run

% sudo avahi-daemon --debug --no-drop-root
open(/var/run/avahi-daemon//pid): Permission denied
Failed to create PID file: Permission denied

Nov 18 12:37:12 machine kernel: [ 1899.121695] type=1400 audit(1353260232.550:230): apparmor="DENIED" operation="chown" parent=12235 profile="/usr/sbin/avahi-daemon" name="/run/avahi-daemon/" pid=12236 comm="avahi-daemon" requested_mask="w" denied_mask="w" fsuid=0 ouid=104
Nov 18 12:37:12 machine kernel: [ 1899.121721] type=1400 audit(1353260232.550:231): apparmor="DENIED" operation="mknod" parent=12235 profile="/usr/sbin/avahi-daemon" name="/run/avahi-daemon/pid" pid=12236 comm="avahi-daemon" requested_mask="c" denied_mask="c" fsuid=0 ouid=0

I don't know why name="/run/avahi-daemon" and not "/var/run/avahi-daemon". ltrace appears to show the latter being used.
