Just making an official request thread.
First off, if mpd is already available then please accept my apologies and let me know where to find it!

Otherwise, I would like to request this incredibly useful application which supports playback of nearly all audio formats has a very small footprint in terms of resource requirements, supports gapless (YAAAAAAAY!) playback and has numerous options for client software (much of which is already available in the repositories).

Please please please could someone add this?

I've found this page but cannot seem to find mpd anywhere:

https://garage.maemo.org/projects/mpd

I agree with this. There does appear to be mpd libs and clients, but not the server itself. I want to run mpd + ncmpcpp locally as ncmpcpp is the best player on Linux, in my opinion.

Edit: I just tried compiling it and it compiles fine and appears to run, although it fails because of the lack of config files and the rest. It should work once that is sorted. I wouldn't know how to go about integrating it into maemo's system without screwing things up, though. I'll have a play around with it tomorrow and see if I can run it from a user directory, without using any init scripts and the like.

In case it's not clear, I've only tried compiling mpd, not ncmpcpp yet.

Scroll down the page you linked to for a .deb of mpd.

Install the lib files given.

It might work...

It hasn't been updated since 2007. Might work, but probably quite buggy, and might not work with modern clients.

Yes, that's why I use the word you repeated twice -- might.

I have had pretty good luck with obsolete programs on my N900.

Hello,

If it helps anyone, I just published a detailed step by step tutorial on how to compile and correctly configure MPD on the N900.

You can access it from here:

I only have mpc in the n900. Normally I have the phone connected to the sound system, and control it with any other device that is connected to my network. Mostly I use Music Player Minion (firefox add-on), MPoD, and sevenMPC.
