Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: glom

Package: glom
Version: 1.3.8-0ubuntu1
Severity: normal

If the DB user you use to connect to PostgreSQL is missing required
access rights then Glom has some serious issues...

If createdb is missing then Glom fails to create the database (obviously)
but still has the state files on the disk.  If you then try to open that
database again Glom complains bitterly.

If createrole is missing then Glom has a segmentation fault and then
the next time you try to use the database the required roles are missing
(even if you add the createrole role to your DB user).

Perhaps these roles could be checked for before the database is created
and a suitable error message (with resolution directions) provided
to the user.

Cheers!
