Just added a Raspbian apt repository to expose backported build for the latest MPD version
Configuration
Here is a config for your raspberry:
# Drop this line in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/deb.kaliko.me.list
deb http://deb.kaliko.me/raspbian-backports/ stable-backports main
You can then install a recent MPD running:
apt install mpd/stable-backports
Happy listening
