(3) Avahi Issues:

It always happens when I (re)start httpd:
==================================
/var/log/httpd/error_log-20090503:[Sat May 02 21:59:22 2009] [error] 
avahi_clien
t_new() failed: An unexpected D-Bus error occured
==================================


Perhaps therein lies the problem below?

How does one test Avahi integrity, without being forced to reinstall
avahi and *many* other dependencies?
==================================
/var/log/prelink/prelink.log:/usr/lib/libavahi-common.so.3.5.  
000d1a000-00d25d50
/var/log/prelink/prelink.log:/usr/lib/libavahi-client.so.3.2.4
