Package: mytop
Version: 1.9.1-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
The mysql client allows values in .my.cnf to be quoted, while mytop understands
quotes around the values in the file as being part of the value. As a result,
there is no way to write .my.cnf in a way that'll allow hash symbols (#) in
passwords.
For example, this works in mysql but fails in mytop:
[client]
password="my#password"
However, this works in mytop but fails in mysql:
[client]
password=my#password
Thanks and best regards,
Matt
