Public bug reported: Today i took some time to figure out why my bootup process seems to hang for over 10 seconds, and it seems to be caused by the avahi-daemon. Bootchart shows avahi running a 'host' process, so it's probably caused by the lack of a network connection, making the resolve attempt time out. I don't have a network connection during bootup. I'm using NetworkManager on a laptop with wifi, so my connection is not available until nm-applet connects it (after logging in).
