[Bug 371078] [NEW] Fails to install with password NO (but didn't ask for one)

[Ronnie Redd]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mtop

Terminal from synaptic dialog:
Unpacking mtop (from .../mtop_0.6.6-1.2_all.deb) ...
Processing triggers for man-db ...
Setting up mtop (0.6.6-1.2) ...
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
dpkg: error processing mtop (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 mtop


mtop didn't ask for a password and in synaptic, looks like it installed.
If I try to run it as sudo:
 w procs [Access denied; you need the PROCESS privilege for this operation]
