This is still handled by userpasswd in F13.
Comment 2 Miloslav Trmač 2010-03-30 19:34:37 UTC 
Thanks for your report.  I'm afraid I was not able to reproduce the problem so far.

* What is your locale?  Run (locale) as the relevant user.
* Please attach your /etc/pam.d/passwd, /etc/pam.d/system-auth, and /etc/nsswitch.conf
* Please open the "About me" dialog, then:
  * click on "change password"
  * Switch to a text console (e.g. Ctrl+Alt+F2)
  * Log in as root
  * Using (ps), find two processes named "userpasswd" and "userhelper".
    Start strace of each, e.g.
       (strace -ff -o log -s 512 -p your_pid_of_userpasswd &)
    and likewise for the "userhelper" process
  * Then attach all generated log.* files

you can input password "1qaz@WSX" for a test when change password, this will reproduce the issue.

Thanks, I can see the problem now.

I'll make the final error message more clear (probably after F13).
Comment 14 Miloslav Trmač 2010-03-31 20:22:05 UTC 
BTW, once you enter a weak password, each of the following dialogs does contain a "BAD PASSWORD: ..." message.
Comment 15 Miloslav Trmač 2010-03-31 20:36:25 UTC 
Fixed in upstream changeset 1c9a4947e157 .
