(That's a question, not an > answer, because I don't know if you're going to be able to do this.) If you do "yum remove avahi" it will not remove the library, just the daemon. And nothing serious depends on the daemon itself. I could bet that Lee did something like "yum remove avahi*" and then started complaining about 200 dependencies, since yum wanted to remove avahi-libs and avahi-glib in addition to the daemon. He didn't provide any yum output for us to see what he did, but rather continued to complain endlessly with no evidence at all. I see no dependency problem here at all, only Lee apparently misusing wildcards and yum. There seems to be no point in discussing this any further, smells like a PEBKAC to me.
