Description of problem: Anaconda will not allow installation to continue if it doesn't consider the password strong enough. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1.Begin installation 2.Type in a password--for testing, try 1234 3. Actual results:Ananconda stays on that screen Expected results:That one can click done, or at least click it twice after a warning and continue Additional info: This was first put into Fedora 22, and after a great deal of protest was removed. There are a variety of reasons why this is not a good idea, most of which were stated in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1191842 as well as as a long thread on the Fedora testing list. Please revert to the expected behavior, that a password will be accepted after a warning. As mentioned in the previous bug report and thread, the password checking method used by anaconda was not all that effective
I totally support the submitter's view. It has been discussed thoroughly and there is no need to repeat it here.
The person performing the installation should have the ability to make such a decision. To deny such a choice ("nanny knows what's best for you") is something that one may expect with a M$ product
The Fedora password policy is currently a work in progress. Please discuss your password policy issues at https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/1455. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1230293 ***
