[Pkg-mpd-maintainers] Bug#685365: mpd: init script shows "start-create-db" in help message, but does not support it

[Sascha Silbe]

Package: mpd
Version: 0.16.7-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The help output for /etc/init.d/mpd includes the "start-create-db"
action:

root at twin:/var/lib/mpd/music# /etc/init.d/mpd --help
Usage: /etc/init.d/mpd {start|start-create-db|stop|restart|force-reload}

However trying to execute it only prints the help again:

root at twin:/var/lib/mpd/music# /etc/init.d/mpd start-create-db
Usage: /etc/init.d/mpd {start|start-create-db|stop|restart|force-reload}

Indeed /etc/init.d/mpd contains no mention of start-create-db other
than the help output. It's probably a left-over and should be removed
to avoid confusion.
