avahi daemon repeatedly crashes on boot

[graingert]

causes "System program problem detected" to pop-up repeatedly and randomly. "Report problem..." does nothing.

Used to just crash once per boot, and allow reports.

I think this maybe duplicate bug of Bug #1638345

This is an unsupported release now. Please think to install the next LTS 'Bionic 18.04'

Marking as Invalid because the release is EOL is not correct. Marking as Incomplete. Also, 18.04 is (at the time of writing) still in development, and you should expect some breakage.

Reporter, is this still present on 17.10 or 16.04?

I am not the reporter but can confirm that it still affects 16.04 LTS.
