PostgreSQL version: Unsupported/Unknown
Operating system: openSUSE 13.1 (Bottle) (x86_64)
Description:
When storing credentials for connections into ~/.pgpass the credentials is
stored in delimited plaintext form. Not only is this practise a security
risk, but when the credential contains the delimiter (colon) it fails to be
read back out and app responds with "invalid credentials".
