After we've been hit by Large File Support problems several times in
the past week (which only occur on 32 bit platforms, which I don't
have), this is yet another attempt to fix the issue.
Accidently, MPD has been using several GLib 2.16 functions for a
while, and nobody noticed yet. To simplify the code base, let's bump
the minimum GLib version for MPD to 2.16. That version is old enough,
and it's reasonable to expect users to have it.
Don't call g_error(), which will abort the process and dump core.
This patch does not affect all the config_get_X() functions. These
need some more refactoring.
Instead of hard-coding the path "/etc/mpd.conf", use the configured
$(sysconfdir) path. This can be set with:
./configure --sysconfdir=/etc
Note that this changes the default path to "/usr/local/etc/mpd.conf",
given the default prefix "/usr/local". This is actually more correct
than the old default.
Since version 0.14, MPD has been logging to standard error instead of
standard output. The option name should reflect that. The old option
continues to work, we will remove it in a future MPD release.
This updates the copyright header to all be the same, which is
pretty much an update of where to mail request for a copy of the GPL
and the years of the MPD project. This also puts all committers under
'The Music Player Project' umbrella. These entries should go
individually in the AUTHORS file, for consistancy.
mpd uses some additional files to work, such as pid_file, state_file,
db_file, etc. when running mpd as non-root user, it is often that those
files end in ~/.mpd
in that case, we end up with 2 entries in a user's home, .mpdconf and
.mpd - which clutters homedirs.
this patch allows ~/.mpd/mpd.conf as an alternative to ~/.mpdconf,
allowing for a cleaner homedir
