Not using dbus anymore?

See original GitHub issue

Expected Behavior

Previously homebridge would use dbus to talk to Avahi to publish its resources. I’ve not upgraded homebridge for a long time

Current Behavior

It looks rather like homebridge (or its node dependencies) is spinning up a whole mDNS stack and is fighting with Avahi to listen on UDP:5353

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

strace -Ff homebridge 2>&1 | grep dbus

Versions

root@gnubert:/# homebridge --version 0.4.43 root@gnubert:/# node --version v10.4.1

OS version: debian jessie via the node:latest docker images
