This is a major update - from the announcement:
24/32 bit support, audio archive support (bz2/iso9660/zip), all config
entries are completely optional now, multiple and pulseaudio mixer
support, new audio playing modes (consume, etc..), sticker database,
improved tag parsing of all types and too many interesting highlights left
out of this list
pkgsrc notes:
Archive support isn't enabled yet (disabled per default upstream),
neither is pulseaudio support,
just kept the functionality of the previous version.
I didn't find out what libcue does for flac support -- album FLACs
work well for me without that, so I've left it out for now.
This release features fixes for jack instability, many streaming issues,
solaris build, cross fading audio defects, improvement in software
volume and non-distribution building. This releases adds writer/composer
tag support and disables oggvorbis seeking on remote files, which fixes
slow ogg file streaming playback.

And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.
Music Player Daemon allows remote access for playing music (MP3s, Ogg
Vorbis files, Flacs and AAC files) and managing playlists. It is
designed for integrating a computer into a stereo system that provides
control for music playback over a local network. It is also makes a
great desktop music player, especially if you're a console junkie,
like frontend options, or restart X often.
this package is a hybrid of a package created by pkg@burningsoda.com
in pkgsrc-wip and the package created independently by myself.
