Description of problem: IIRC it was possible to enter such passwords in the past by double clicking the done button. It is no more possible now. I think the installer shouldn't dictate users how their password should look like, it can just warn or recommend. I.e. for testing weak passwords are absolutely acceptable and I don't like to write kickstart for it just to be able to install the distro. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-22.18-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. During the installation select weak root password, e.g. "redhat" Actual results: Unable to use the password Expected results: Warning, maybe another dialog, but possibility to force the password Additional info: FOSS software shouldn't dictate users what they can do or mustn't do with their machines. It can just warn or recommend. It's essential principle of freedom. Filled during Anaconda DNF test day, but not DNF related :)
Yes, I agree. Moreover the requirements are much stricter than in F21. It didn't accept a password with 12 characters that contained both digits, lower, and upper case letters. I wonder if someone really expects users to have 20-character passwords full of @#$%^&*{.

And closed as notabug, as usual :). I wonder who is still coming with such super smart features.
