As stated by the (slightly outdated) comments, no user or group named "avahi" or "avahi-autoipd" exists in the default /etc/passwd or /etc/group in PTXdist, so Avahi will complain about the missing user/group and refuse to start with the default configuration. Set the default values to the unprivileged "nobody"/"nogroup" instead, which already exist, and remove the outdated comments.
