error - unknown command subscribe

Ah. Groove Basin is trying to use a new feature from MPD that isn't in the package you installed yet. If you compile MPD from source this problem will go away.

When I get a chance I will fix this so that the features that require this are simply disabled instead of popping up errors.

Check the warning messages that the server issues upon startup.

by the way, the "mpd conf" that it is referring to is /etc/mpd.conf. I'll have it print the actual path.

sticker_file isn't an option in the fedora 15 shipped version of mpd (I forget what version, and I have compiled from source since then)

Compiling from source isn't a problem. You can just say that whatever version of mpd fedora 15 ships with isn't supported.

@thejoshwolfe can you solve this by using our user list for status messages instead of mpd channel subscriptions?

Actually, I'm about to add another dependency on latest git mpd which will give us the ability to read song tags before the song is added to the library, so it's pointless to remove this dependency.

@sethbuzz So yep, what you said. Bleeding-edge mpd or bust!

What about installing mpd from by way of packages.json? You could fork MPD
to add a npm friendly build script, and pull that over git. Is that
something that npm /can/ do? I'm not familiar with now NPM builds modules
that require compilation.

The problem I foresee with that is that it does not actually make the compilation/installation of mpd easier, because mpd has many C++ library dependencies that are best satisfied with your distro's package manager.

Did you have an idea for how to work around this?

To anyone else finding this trying to solve a similar issue, ensure that all relevant dependencies are installed when compiling MPD from source. Specifically for the sticker feature, the sqlite3 dev library. On Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-dev
