Is there no possibility in Upstart to get the following scenario:

- If avahi-daemon is installed always start CUPS after starting avahi-daemon )or do not start CUPS when avahidaemon is not yet started).
- If avahi-daemon is not installed and only then, start CUPS with avahi-daemon not running.

So CUPS should start independent whether avahidaemon is installed or
not, but if avahidaemon is installed, CUPS has to be started after
avahi-daemon.

Or should we let avahi-daemon restart CUPS when it is started while CUPS
is already running, so that we get a CUPS session using avahi-daemon?

Title:
  [regression] cups-daemon  hard-depends on avahi-daemon

Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  cups-daemon  depends on avahi-daemon

  This is probably the worst workaround possible for bug 1178172
  Which is a combination of two separate issues
   o   "cups requires avahi-daemon to be started before cups"
   o   "cups's init script won't attempt to start cups if avahi-daemon is not installed / running"

  There was no such issue on ubuntu 13.04 Precise or before.
