Package: mpd
Version: 0.14.2-3
Severity: normal

mpd does not load .ape files (Monkey's Audio).
While upstream does support APE since 0.14. [*]

  [*] http://musicpd.org/mantis/view.php?id=1871

"ape" file extension can be seen in `ffmpeg_plugin.c' ..

  $ grep -C3 ape mpd-0.14.2/src/decoder/ffmpeg_plugin.c
  static const char *const ffmpeg_suffixes[] = {
          "wma", "asf", "wmv", "mpeg", "mpg", "avi", "vob", "mov", "qt", "swf",
          "rm", "swf", "mp1", "mp2", "mp3", "mp4", "m4a", "flac", "ogg", "wav",
          "au", "aiff", "aif", "ac3", "aac", "mpc", "ape",
          "tta",
          NULL
  };

.. but ffmpeg plugin is disabled by debian/rules.

  $ grep ffmpeg mpd-0.14.2/debian/rules
  DEB_CONFIGURE_USER_FLAGS += $(WITH_TREMOR) --disable-lame
--enable-un --enable-ao --disable-ffmpeg

Why is ffmpeg disabled? According to debian/changelog, it was enabled
in 0.14~beta1-1 but never mentioned since.

...I can play .ape file with ffplay or mplayer. I can try recoding APE
to FLAC, though I dislike the idea. What I want is playing them from mpd.

Thank you.
