<p>If you are experiencing crashes when you update your mpd library on Ubuntu 12.10, <a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libmad/+bug/989846">the fault is with libmad0</a>.</p>
<p>This can be fixed by installing libmad0 from Debian Wheeze. As root:</p>

{% highlight bash %}
wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libm/libmad/libmad0_0.15.1b-7_armhf.deb
dpkg -i ./libmad0_0.15.1b-7_armhf.deb
{% endhighlight %}

<p>I can confirm that this has fixed my update crashes. When I get to the box itself I'll confirm whether audio playback still works!</p>
