Bug Description
Binary package hint: mtop
Terminal from synaptic dialog:
Unpacking mtop (from .../mtop_
Processing triggers for man-db ...
Setting up mtop (0.6.6-1.2) ...
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
dpkg: error processing mtop (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
mtop
mtop didn't ask for a password and in synaptic, looks like it installed.
If I try to run it as sudo:
w procs [Access denied; you need the PROCESS privilege for this operation]

I can confirm this problem occurs in the way described. I have pinentry pop up, but nevertheless the password is not considered and the error messages below are reported.
