Debian Upgrade of phpmyadmin to Version 2.8.0.2-Debian-4

Problem

After upgrading phpmyadmin to Version 2.8.0.2-Debian-4 i couldn't login any more. I always got the error:
#1045 - Access denied for user: 'www-data@localhost' (Using password: YES)

Solution

I had coockies for localhost set which remembered the user to login. deleting those cookies gave me access to the pypmyadmin again.
