It's indeed very annoying that we have those two different uses of the mpd name. But there is a lot of documentation on MPI referring to mpd, and it would be very confusing to change the name of the mpd binary for users of mpich2. So, there's no perfect solution, and I think that the current one (assume that there's no common user of music player daemon and mpich2) is the best compromise. -- | Lucas Nussbaum | [email protected] http://www.lucas-nussbaum.net/ | | jabber: [email protected] GPG: 1024D/023B3F4F | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
