I'm removing this patch from Debian [1], because completion with
avahi-browse was never enabled by default (in order to enable it, one
has to set the COMP_KNOWN_HOSTS_WITH_HOSTFILE environment variable, as
described in the documentation [2]), so the patch is only making it
impossible for people who actually want to complete with avahi-browse
to enabled it.

If this starts to cause trouble to people again, then we'll have to
investigate what is actually going on.

Kind regards,
Gabriel
