The package description says that support for an external program run on

over ten years that seems to be stretching the truth. I would simply
delete that bit.

As far as I can see, web applications designed to run under Apache
install images under /usr/share/images and expect the URL /images to be
aliased to this directory. However, I can't find any traces of it in the
default apache2

The current short package descriptions refer to rsh, yet for some years,
new users are unlikely to have used rsh, and experienced users are
likely (like me!) not to have used rsh for years.
Also, it's a good idea to avoid indirection

mpd claims that when run from a non-root user it will run as that user
