There are two issues here. I suspect both are related and introduced by the same code that fixed this blueprint:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/gephi/+spec/sqlite-database-import

1) I already have a sqlite configuration set up.
2) I add a new configuration, for mysql.
3) When I choose "MySQL" [this looks like it's the same as for the other db types, but I can't test it], I fill in the "host" box and an error shows saying "'{host}' is not a file".
3a) If I simply touch the name of the host on the filesystem ['touch ramos3.home.net'], that error goes away after I modify the host name and set it right again [ie, so the callback that validates whether a file is real is called, with the correct hostname as a file].
4) The connection parameters other than Host never seem to be saved in the configuration; every time I re-open that dialog and choose the mysql configuration, the parameters port,database,username,pass are all blank and must be re-filled. Host, node query, and edge query all remain intact.
