Reviewing the avahi packaging. This is most probably caused by adduser creating the homedir (/var/run/avahi-daemon). You've probably set your DIR_MODE in /etc/adduser.conf to 0700, which is what causes the issue. I've fixed this in svn. You can savely chmod the dir to 0755 on your system (after a reboot the dir will be recreated with the right perms too).
