Description:
The package ships with a tmpfiles.d file that requires the existence of a user named 'mpd', but the package does not create this user. As a result, systemd-tmpfiles fails:

systemd-tmpfiles[1023]: [/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/mpd.conf:1] Unknown user 'mpd'.
systemd-tmpfiles[1023]: stat(/run/user/1000/gvfs) failed: Permission denied


Additional info:
* package version: extra/mpd 0.18.5-1

Steps to reproduce:
Install mpd without creating a user named 'mpd'.

Oh you are right, earlier versions shipped without the user and it seems it wasn't created when I updated. A simple pacman -R followed by -S solved the issue, thanks.
