Yes this is a bug being discussed on the main devel and anaconda
lists. Try Fedora_Project123! the set it to whatever you want
afterwords. If that doesn't work use
"YouHaveToBeKiddingMeYouIdioticInstaller" (the " are part of the
password.) I change out Idiotic with various Anglo Saxon Norse words
which are not proper to use on a mailing list.
You got that right!
Yes, I have read up on this on the main devel list and put one comment
in on it.
Look up Rich Smith's cryptosmith.org on password sanity.
Let's say the english dictionary has 5x10^5 words. A string of 6 words
would take a 5x10^30 rainbow table to look up. Yet such a password gets
flagged as weak. Perhaps there are some shortcuts that make the space
smaller, but I can't see it being so much smaller.
Hopefully this will be resolved sooner rather than later.
Passwords that in the past scored strong are now weak. Etc.
If you skip the initial-setup password and do it with passwd, you
can 'get by' with the old rules.
I actually think there is an error in the password strenght logic.
I suspect it is looking at the text and saying, boy there are
words there so it is crackable. Even if there are 6 words, each of
different length. I know this as the 6 word one I tried got
flagged as weak.
