[Pkg-mpd-maintainers] Bug#708246: Bug#708246: mpd in wheezy built without sidplay support

Fixed 708246 0.17-1
thanks

Hi,

> the mpd package in wheezy archive seems to be built without sidplay

> modifying the source by just 'apt-get source && apt-get build-dep &&
> dkpg-buildpackage'.

the build log for the wheezy version contains the following lines:

checking for main in -lsidplay2... yes
checking for main in -lresid-builder... yes
checking for main in -lsidutils... no
configure: WARNING: libresid-builder or libsidutils not found -- disabling sidplay decoder plugin

This is no longer the case from 0.17-1 onwards, but since you say it
works just fine for you when recompiling, I'd say it's probably due to a
bug in a different package than mpd.

So things are fine in testing, but for wheezy, there's little I can do
at this point. All I have to offer is a backport of the current testing
version to wheezy-backports. Would that be of use to you?
