I'm not sure exactly what you want this to do. Are you starting MPD at some point after boot as it is configured in the package, or are you running it from a user account? What is the issue with starting mpd on boot? It seems like if we can fix that, the root of the problem would be solved. > For extra credit it'd be nice to be able to disable automatic start of > the daemon on system startup yet be able to start the daemon “by hand” > at a later point (without changing /etc/default/mpd back and forth). The init system just runs the script. If there's a proper way to detect "by hand" invocation I am unaware of it. (Of course, /etc/default/mpd is sourced by the shell. You're allowed to kludge it there with something like "test -f /etc/nologin && START_MPD=false"...) -- things change. deck...@red-bean.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
