Bug Description
Binary package hint: mythtv-database
I upgraded from Kubuntu Edgy to Feisty 7.04 using update-manager. Now apt-get (and anything that uses it, such as Adept) always reports an error with mythtv-database. The mythtv-database configuration always tries to connect to MySQL as the root user, but without a password. Since my MythTV setup existed prior to updating and my MySQL database already has a password assigned to the root user for use by Wordpress, the attempted connection to MySQL as a passwordless root user fails. I have correct mythtv login credentials for the mythtv user in /etc/mythtv/

To post a comment you must log in.
At this point, you should be able to follow the popup's directions and
sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database
To enter the root password that you currently have assigned.
Can you attempt that?
