        @christos3105 This indicates that the Avahi service was started twice. Not sure how that would happen. What happens on reboot?

          @dennypage said in Avahi not working on 23.01-BETA:

          Same issue after a full reboot.

            @christos3105 I will have a look, but it will have to wait for RC for me to do it. I don't have a current beta env.

              @dennypage no rush. it's not a critical app after all.

                Problem solved for me after updating to 23.01.r.20230208.1414
                Now Avahi works fine.
