Public bug reported:

If a user is specified in ~/.my.cnf but not in command line  mylvmbackup
ignores it, instead uses default  root


# mylvmbackup --backupdir='$BACKUPDIR' --vgname=$VG --lvname=$LV --xfs
20140114 18:24:05 Info: Connecting to database...

# cat ~/.my.cnf 
#
[client]
user=backuper
password=qwerty
socket                         = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock


If the user is specified in the command line the password is successfully read from ~/.my.cnf
