* [ptxdist] [PATCH] avahi: use working defaults for user/group

From: Roland Hieber @ 2024-11-10 23:01 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: ptxdist; +Cc: Roland Hieber

As stated by the (slightly outdated) comments, no user or group named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already exist, and remove the outdated comments.
