I knew that either place I put it would be wrong:)

avahi appears to be the only package that depends on libdaemon. A minimalist 
approach, only allowing libdaemon if it was required would place it with 
avahi.

As a general service, it should go in a general category like other, but to 
the minimalist it then can take up space when it is not really required.

I chose the minimalist approach. Whomever commits this to the tree can 
decide.
