Confirmed. Seems like upstream bug, though (-:E

+  Fix config file install path (bug #327959)

This was actually not a mpdscribble bug but rather an automake "feature".
The old am__strip_dir macro worked like this: dest=$(am__strip_dir) -> dest=mpdscribble.conf
But with 1.11 it's supposed to be used like this: $(am__strip_dir) -> f=mpdscribble.conf
I've changed Makefile.am to use the new behaviour and force automake 1.11 now.
