Details

Description:
In the most recent update of mpd, it appears that the systemd service files were either no packaged, or have gone missing in some other way. I tried reinstalling mpd just to make sure that I hadn't deleted the systemd service files myself. Even though mpd appears to be missing it's systemd service files, it is still working correctly when manually launched, making this a low priority issue.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
pacman -Qs mpd
local/mpd 0.19.20-2
Flexible, powerful, server-side application for playing music
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Install mpd and ncmpcpp
2. Issue command: systemctl --user start mpd.service
3. Scratch head at the error message: Failed to start mpd.service: Unit mpd.service not found.

If you rely on mpd providing systemd user service files, the proper course of action is for you to ask upstream to incorporate those files in their source tree.
