No answer upstream in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79847 ...

I thought about simply disabling that option per default, but the problem
here is that this also would just disable the Bluetooth functionality (see [1])
- and not only the avahi one...

I am not sure whether we should do that.

The other option I see is to split _libsdlo.so_ (too bad this is buried
deep inside Draw :/) built against avahi out to a new libreoffice-impress-avahi
 or somesuch (which then DOES listen per default but is not in the "default"
desktop set; given LO upstream afaics doesn't build with --enable-avahi that's
not a regression to upstreams binaries anyway) and keep a "normal" libsdlo.so
in libreoffice-draw...

Regards,

Rene
