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:

>>>
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.
