For completeness: that's a port to Maemo 2 (aka mistral, OS 2006) as seen on the Nokia 770. I've done a very rough port to Maemo 3 (bora, OS 2007) as seen on the N800, based on the Debian packages - I'll try to clean that up and put it online at some point soon. It didn't seem to be very reliable, but I think that was my home wireless network's fault - I'll try it at work and see if it works any better! The reason I wanted an Avahi install is the Salut connection manager for the Telepathy IM framework - this provides iChat-compatible link-local presence broadcasting and instant messaging. Because Nokia use Telepathy for the 770 and N800's XMPP/Jabber/Google Talk support, this means you can talk to link-local contacts via the normal Nokia user interface.
