Previously the "mytop" was standalone port. I upgraded MariaDB 10.1 to 10.3
which is conflicting with installed "mytop". Original "mytop" was removed and
"mytop" from mariadb103-client package does not work if user has ~/my.cnf with
stored password for different user (login) than should be used with "mytop".

"mytop" should read its options from ~/.mytop file where I have all the options
specified

user=mytop
pass=SomeStrongPasswordHere
host=localhost
db=mysql
delay=3
port=3306
socket=/tmp/mysql.sock
batchmode=0
header=1
color=1
idle=1
resolve=1

But when I run "mytop" I got these error:

Cannot connect to MariaDB server. Please check the:

  * database you specified "mysql" (default is "test")
  * username you specified "mytop" (default is "root")
  * password you specified "AnotherPassword" (default is "")
  * hostname you specified "localhost" (default is "localhost")
  * port you specified "3306" (default is 3306)
  * socket you specified "/tmp/mysql.sock" (default is "")

The options my be specified on the command-line or in a ~/.mytop
config file. See the manual (perldoc mytop) for details.

Here's the exact error from DBI. It might help you debug:'

Access denied for user 'mytop'@'localhost' (using password: YES)


Where "AnotherPassword" is the password read from ~/.my.cnf which is password
for my currently logged user and not password for user "mytop" under which
"mytop" should run.

It worked for me for the last 10+ years with standalone "mytop" but does not
work anymore.

The next problem is that "mytop" has dependencies on some Perl libraries but
they are not specified in the mariadb103-client package. (all are installed in
my case)
