Package: kbarcode Version: 2.0.5-1 Severity: normal The error message "Can't connect to database" is unhelpful. Using tcpdump, I discovered the real error message was:
Access denied for user 'supaplex'@'%.daxal.com' to database 'mysql' I already have a user setup with proper permissions to the kbarcode database. Only the schema remains to be inserted. The 'test settings' gives a false sense of assurance. imo there should be different (and optional) steps for creating the user, the database, and adding the schema. The program should also tell you what it's going to do, and why.
