Bug Description

Binary package hint: bacula

Other packages have the same problem (ie torrentflux), when installing from terminal, dbconfig-common asks for the root password for configuring mysql db. However it does not when installing using the software center, which causes installation to fail.

Hi Omer,

Sorry I'm answering so late! I checked it out again and it seems I can't reproduce it anymore. I believe it is fixed in either 10.10 or another update.
Sorry I didn't mark this bug as "fixed".
