Avahi seems to be broken on Leap Micro 5.5 (and maybe SL Micro 5.5 and SLE Micro 6.1?)

It's the default, as per https://github.com/uyuni-project/sumaform/blob/master/README_ADVANCED.md#disabling-avahi-and-avahi-reflectors

But unless use_avahi = false is used, the deployment fails.

My guess is Leap Micro 5.5 does not ship the required packages.

TBH I think that since we are moving to Tumbleweed soon, we should not invest time on fixing this, unless it fails there as well.

EDIT: On a second thought, what about Multi-Linux Manager 5.0 and 5.1 and their base OS? Could it be avahi does not work either?

EDIT2: And Uyuni would be affected if SLE Micro 5.5 does not work with Avahi as of course it's supported (openSUSE Leap Micro 5.5 should go away soon, as it's EoL).
