That means that pmcd (an avahi client) was unable to announce its
existence (by communicating with the avahi daemon). (I believe the
client library uses dbus to talk to the local daemon ... has the
machine suffered OOM or something lately? Considered a reboot?)

And a new copy of the daemon-connection-failed message in pmcd.log?
Something must be wrong with the local avahi-daemon server
installation. ("avahi-browse -a -t" should list some items for the
local host, not just pmcd.)
