Bug Description
Binary package hint: mpd
Every time I reboot my pc, I have to recreate /var/run/mpd and re-own it to mpd:mpd to be able to start the Music Player Daemon.
"Starting Music Player Daemon: could not open pid_file "/var/run/mpd/pid" (at line 20) for writing: No such file or directory
failed."
Version: 0.12.0-0ubuntu1
Dist: (X)ubuntu Edgy

Confirmed. This is happening because files in /var/run/ get wiped on reboot including /var/run/mpd/ so the mpd init script is unable to write the PID file to that location.
