I can't reproduce the problem. Neither on my laptop nor in a chroot test
environment.

The shlibs file shipped by libavahi-core7_0.7-1 looks right to me
(attached), so I have no idea what's going on here.

Guillem, can you chime in here, please. What does this error message
mean and when and why can this happen.

Michael
