Login-path configuration on mysql-utilities (no replies)

Hello,

I try to use mysql-utilities (1.6.1-2) with login-path from my Ubuntu desktop (4.13.0-45-generic #50~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP) to MySQL server 5.7.22 on Ubuntu server 16.04 (4.4.0-116-generic #140-Ubuntu SMP).
(I try to format this post but I didn't find the shortcut for code ...)


# Create the login paths
mysql_config_editor set --login-path="master" --host="pre-testmysqldba01x" --user="test" --password

mysql_config_editor set --login-path="slave" --host="pre-testmysqldba02x" --user="test" --password

# Show config editor information
mysql_config_editor print --all
[slave]
user = test
password = *****
host = pre-testmysqldba02x
[master]
user = test
password = *****
host = pre-testmysqldba01x

# Test configuration
mysql --login-path=master

Same error, if I add inside the login-path, the information port and socket...

Is-it a misuse, a bug or a missing dependent package(s) ?
