** Description changed: - This happened in a livecd installation from the ubuntu 12.04 desktop - i386 iso file. + When you set the password during the installation or also when you + change it via the gnome-control-center you can insert a weak password + (like "123456" or "qwerty" or "abcdef" or "password" itself) without any + alerts, or so on. - During a installation on a VM I decided that the username should be - usuario (user in spanish) and the password should be contraseña - (password in spanish). The language of the installer was set to spanish. - - The bug is that the password "contraseña" was marked as acceptable - (aceptable in spanish), witch is not. - - I suggest a password strength verification that includes the most used - passwords (like 1234 or qwerty) or, at least, a dictionary that includes - the word password in every language. - - I understand that the system must perceive the "ñ" character as a - special symbol, but having declared a spanish keyboard it should not be - treated as such. Nor with any other keymap and symbol that is non- - english but present on them. + The suggestion is a password strength verification that includes the most used passwords (like "1234" or "qwerty") and a dictionary that includes the word password in every language. + A special attention to language like Spanish where "password" is "contraseña", and where is the character "ñ" which can be recognize as a special symbol.
