Package: mpd
Severity: minor
mpd claims that when run from a non-root user it will run as that user
(see the comments in /etc/mpd.conf) but in fact it tries to become mpd
and then aborts when it can't. Either the comments should be clarified
("mpd will try to become the given user, if any"), or the behaviour
should be changed to match them. I am quite happy with the former: if I
don't set a user to become, then mpd just runs as the user from which it
was started.

The updated manpage is already included in the package, so I'll close this
bug now.
