Not sure why you need that extra package. It should work with avahi core packages already installed in the rootfs Debian-5.2.9-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2, out of the box.
libnss-mdns is recommended (i.e. not required) package for avahi.
Thanks for the report. If it is helping you making it work in your network environment, then it is great to have. I'll keep that in mind for the next rootfs release.
