[Bug 340502] [NEW] MySQL handler does not detect errors

[Christian Rishøj]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: backupninja


When listing databases, a superfluous sed hides the return status of the mysql command:

Lines 235-239 in /usr/share/backupninja/mysql:

databases=$(su $user -c "$MYSQL $defaultsfile -N -B -e 'show databases'" | sed 's/|//g;/\+----/d')
if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
   fatal "Authentication problem, maybe user/password is wrong or mysqld is not running?"
fi

Here, the return status of the $MYSQL command is hidden by the tailing
sed command.

** Affects: backupninja (Ubuntu)
