[Bug 819535] [NEW] mysqldumpslow looking for slow.log file on an incorrect directory

[Dax Solomon Umaming]

Public bug reported:

when executing mysqldumpslow without arguments, the response I get is: 
Can't find '/var/lib/mysql/*-slow.log' 
when it should look for the slow log file at /var/log/mysql/mysql-slow.log

I understand that the tool should be executed with argument pointing to the correct log file location, but if that is the case, then we should also change the response from 
Can't find '/var/lib/mysql/*-slow.log' 
to
Missing argument, see --help or man
or something like that
