is the avahi user creation supposed to be part of installing avahi?

I had an avahi probleme due to thuis missing user.
I recently updated avahi to 0.6.22_0 (from 0.6.17_0). It fixed the missing avahi 
user problem.
 But I'm still having an issue, apparently similar with Paul's one.

Console log:

Would reinstall avahi solve the problem?
I have seen very few thread about the topic.
Paul, did you manage to get a working asahi?

Thanks,
