-pkg-config
-----------
-
-MPD uses pkg-config to locate most external libraries. If you do not
-have pkg-config, or if your version of the library does not ship the
-".pc" file, you have to provide the library's build options in
-environment variables. These variables are documented in "./configure
---help". Example:
-
- FLAC_CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/FLAC FLAC_LIBS=-lFLAC ./configure
-
-
-Download
---------
-
-Get the latest release from of MPD from <http://www.musicpd.org/>.
-
-Compile
--------
-
-1) unpack the archive
-
-$ tar xf mpd-x.x.x.tar.xz
-
-2) change to directory created
-
-$ cd mpd-x.x.x
-
-3) Run configure script (this will determine what dependencies you have)
-
-$ ./configure
-
-4) Compile
-
-$ make
-
-Install (Optional)
--------
-
-(as root)
-$ make install
-
-Run
----
-
-1) run mpd:
-
-$ mpd <config file>
-
-First default is $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mpd/mpd.conf then ~/.mpdconf then
-~/.mpd/mpd.conf then /etc/mpd.conf. If neither of these exist a mpd
-configuration file must be specified at runtime.
-
-A sample config file is included with the source of MPD, mpdconf.example.
-
-The first time MPD is run it will attempt to discover all music in your
-music root, recursively. This can be affected by the symbolic link
-options specified in the example mpd.conf.
-
-Using MPD
