Details

It is Arch's policy to keep everything out of /usr/local, and to put it in /usr. sdl_mixer uses timidity++ for playing midi files. sdl_mixer will _only_ look for the timidity++ config file that is defined in srcdir/timidity/config.h. This config file defaults to /usr/local/lib/timidity/timidity.cfg. This path should be /usr/lib/timidity/timidity.cfg. That way, we can keep everything out of /usr/local.

To solve this problem, a patch must be made to change the config path. I have created a patch that will do this, and I will enclose it with this bug.
