Do you HAVE mdnsresponder installed?  Because a quick look at the avahi 
description:

$ pacman -Si avahi
Repository        : extra
Name              : avahi
Version           : 0.6.6-2
Groups            : None
Provides          : howl mdnsresponder
Depends On        : dbus libcap libdaemon nss-mdns
Conflicts With    : howl mdnsresponder

Tells me that it provides and conflicts with mdnsresponder.  Therefore, 
if you have it installed, remove it before installing avahi.

If you DON'T have it installed, then install avahi first (pacman -S 
avahi) and then continue with your upgrade.
