Looks like, we still need to keep /etc/avahi/services because avahi-daemon chroot to that location at startup. This is set up at build time via AVAHI_CONFIG_DIR and there is no way to change it at runtime.

Oddly this worked for me locally because I had a stray /etc/avahi/services directory lying around.

Fix coming up.
