[Pkg-mpd-maintainers] Bug#769951: Bug#769951: Bug#769951: mpd: `update-rc.d mpd disable' is not enough to be able to run mpd as normal user

[Clément B.]

All right, I asked around a bit, to get to the following
conclusion: update-rc.d is a systemvinit tool, and is thus
inappropriate for systemd jobs such as disabling this
service. The correct way is to use systemctl.

I don't know what to do next. There is obviously a dependency
problem, it makes no sense to keep the mpd socket around once the
service is disabled, and it is hard to guess that you have to
disable both to run mpd as normal user. I am actually not sure
that the socket unit file is necessary at all, I think mpd is
capable of opening its own socket.

Should this bug be closed and another one opened regarding the
dependency? Who is in charge of writing the init scripts?
