should work but it seems that the code don't use role : https://github.com/nakagami/pyfirebirdsql/blob/master/firebirdsql/fbcore.py you should report it here https://github.com/nakagami/pyfirebirdsql or better propose a patch > I have tried to install KinterbaseDB but it needs Firebird client installed > and I couldn’t get all the relevant dependencies for Firebird 1.5 to install > properly on my Ubuntu system so gave up on that option. > KInterbasDB is obsolete use fdb https://pypi.python.org/pypi/fdb/ > If I only want read access will fdb work or is there some other option I > have missed? fdb need firebird client but it will work
