Re: Error update

the error is with "mpd" music player dameon, not Dragon Player. its an issue of init system, but easily fixed. 1. open /etc/mpd.conf and change uncomment this line: pid_file "/run/mpd/pid" 2. finish the install of mpd sudo dpkg --configure -a that should be it.

There is a slight pause, then back to prompt. That's all.

(Edit: but remember, I'm now in systemd, not sysVinit. OK?)
