Title:
Hang in change password dialog
Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
The change password dialog can hang in certain situations.
To reproduce:
1) Launch system settings
2) Open the "User accounts" control panel
3) Click the password 'dots' to open the "Changing password" dialog
4) Enter the current password, and enter a password that the system thinks is
weak, like 'ubuntu'
5) Press the 'change' button'. A dialog should appear that says, "The new
password is too simple. Please choose another password.". Close the dialog.
6) In the change password dialog, re-enter the weak password from step 4
7) Press the change button
Expected results:
Either the system accepts the new password, or the "The new password is too
simple" dialog from step 5 appears.
Actual results:
The "Changing password" dialog is greyed out and the cursor changes to the
spinning "please wait" cursor. The password is not changed.
This is 100% reproducible for me. May be related to
