Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mpd

The init script of MPD (/etc/init.d/mpd) uses a sed to determine what
will be the user under which MPD is run. This value is set in
/etc/mpd.conf.

This user (variable $USER) is then used to set right on /var/run/mpd
properly.

The problem, is that the sed also match the user line for the shoutcast
output (see the commented example in the conf file). So the init script
try to chown a directory to a non-existant user and the daemon fail to
start because it can't write its PID file.

** Affects: mpd (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
