Description Warren Dukes 2004-07-05 07:02:22 UTC
The mpd init script should pass mpd the explicit config file /etc/mpd.conf, like so:

start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/bin/mpd -- --no-create-db /etc/mpd.conf

This has been discussed in a previous mpd related bug, but somehow got lost when the init script was updated.  The purpose of explicilty specifying /etc/mpd.conf is so that mpd does not first search for a config file in ~/.mpdconf, what is obviously not wanted for an init script.

Thanks,
