PostgreSQL version: 9.0.3
Operating system: Ubuntu 10.10
Description: createdb with description and md5 auth forces to provide
password twice
Details:
How to reproduce the problem:
1.Create new role with (encrypted password):
createuser -SdRP user
2.In PostgreSQL 9.0.3 I found pg_hba.conf with local all all ident, so
change to local all all md5
3.Restart/Reload used cluster
4.Execute createdb -U user mydb "My DB Description"
Output:
Password:
Password:
creatdb command prompts password twice and I think it's improper behaviour
(and documentation is silent about that).
