Hi,

The problem is that /usr/share/doc/README.Debian says:

To prevent mpd from running as a system service, comment out
``START_MPD=true'' in /etc/default/mpd. A normal user account may then
run mpd using their own ~/.mpdconf.

This is incorrect. In order to make the mpd service not start at boot,
one must change START_MPD=true to START_MPD=false (or anything other
than "true") instead of simply commenting out the entry.

Perhaps a better fix would be making the documented behavior the
actual behavior. That should be simple enough. In the init script,
START_MPD is being set initially to "true". If it's instead set to
"false", the default behavior will remain the same as MPD enabled by
default on boot via /etc/default/mpd, and the documented behavior
(commenting out START_MPD) should work fine. Nothing will change for
users that disabled it by setting START_MPD to false in
/etc/init.d/mpd directly (MPD will keep not being started on boot for
them). This is, in my opinion, the best approach.

Thanks in advance,
