Public bug reported:

In version 6.1: in this sql_db.py code:

def dsn_are_equals(first, second):
    def key(dsn):
        k = dict(x.split('=', 1) for x in dsn.strip().split())
        k.pop('password', None) # password is not relevant
        return k
    return key(first) == key(second)

if the password in the DSN contains spaces, the dsn.split().split() does
not work correctly, and means that the dict is called with an update()
containing only one item, instead of 2, giving this error:

dictionary update sequence element #2 has length 1; 2 is required

This affects many processes, including initial database creation. It's
an obscure error, so it's not immediately obvious that a space in the
server password is the cause.
