Package: gnome-control-center
Version: 1:3.14.2-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Using Debian Jessie, I'm trying to change the password of my own user using the
user interface provided by gnome-control-center. The current implementation
seams to enforce security. I cannot enter a weak password.

For our needs, a strong password is not an option.

Also, I don't think it the responsibility of the control-center to ensure
strongnest of the password. It's PAM's responsibility. I'm strongly suggesting
to change the current behaviour. You may warn the user if the password is weak,
but let the user do want he want.
