Package: sympa Version: 4.1.5-2 Severity: important The -h parameter of /usr/share/sympa/db/install-mysql-db is used to form the dsn to connect to the database. It is also used for the GRANT ALL.
So if you are using a mysql server on another host, you can't connect to the database as the sympa user.
