[Pkg-mpd-maintainers] Bug#760131: mpd: dpkg doesn't restart MPD after upgrade (service is cut)

[Cédric Jeanneret]

Package: mpd
Version: 0.18.12-1+b1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,


It seems dpkg doesn't restart MPD service after an update: the service
get cut, binary get replaced… but then service isn't started again,
leading to the absence of MPD service once the upgrade is finished.

Steps:
- upgrade mpd

Outcome:
- no mor MPD service after the upgrade, as it gets stopped and never
  restarted

Expected outcome:
- package post-install script should start mpd

Note: mpd is enabled at boot, and starts as expected when the
workstation starts

This behavior is also detected on testing and, if I recall correctly, on
current stable (though I'm not 100% sure, long time I didn't get stable
on my wrk).

Thanks!

Cheers,

C.
