Description dams (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-16 05:27:15 UTC
mpd initscripts needs the alsasound initscript, which is provided by media-sound/alsa-utils. Either the mpd initscript doesn't really require it, or the mpd ebuild should have media-sound/alsa-utils among its dependancy

simple fix : add media-sound/alsa-utils as mpd depend.

Look inside the ebuild, the "need alsasound" is added to the initscript if alsa USE flag is on. This "hack" has been discussed in bug #99969.

I have changed the alsa? dependency to alsa-utils instead of alsa-libs, as you suggest, to make sure the initscript is there when needed.
