reopen 464712
found avahi-daemon/0.6.23-2
thanks

The libcap2 dependency is more nuanced than I realised. In order to
avoid a similar warning (warning: `avahi-daemon' uses deprecated v2
capabilities in a way that may be insecure.") the libcap2 package must
be >= 2.10 as well (not just libcap2-dev).

I guess this versioned "Depends" should be added explicitly.
