Bug#1089525: Please remove avahi-autoipd from task-laptop
Package: task-laptop
Version: 3.77
Severity: normal
Hi,
please consider removing avahi-autoipd from task-laptop.
NetworkManager (which is typically installed by a desktop environment)
and systemd-networkd have built-in IPv4LL support, so does dhcpcd, which
is supposed to replace isc-dhcp-client in trixie.
As a result, I don't see a good reason to keep avahi-autoipd installed
by default via task-laptop.
Avahi upstream even considers removing avahi-autoipd altogether [1]
