Accessdeniedforuser'root'@'localhost'

With phpMyAdmin 2.11.5.1 I kept gettimng "#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password...". I double-checked my password, etc..

I ended up checking out 3.0.0-dev from SVN and when I pulled it up, it reported on the login interface that "mcrypt" was missing in my list of extensions. I installed it, restarted the webserver and it worked instantly.

(Sidenote: PHP5 on Ubuntu doesn't have mcrypt by default. I actually needed to add "universe" to my packages and get it from there.)

The note about mcrypt should probably be "backported" to the 2.x branch. I know this probably happens only once in a lifetime (;-)) or whenever you setup a new server, but it would be a huge convenience.
