Steps to reproduce: + On Ubuntu 9.04 (confirmed to affect 8.10 too). Steps to reproduce: 1. install libpam-cracklib 2. log out and back in 3. go System/Preferences/About Me and bring up the password dialog 4. type in the correct password to authenticate and press enter - 5. type in 'pass' (it's too short) - 6. type in 'password' + 5. type in 'pass' into both fields, and click 'Change password' (it's too short) + 6. type in 'password' into both fields, and click 'Change password'. Nothing appears to happen and 'Change password' is still clickable. Click it again. gnome-about-me will now 'hang'. It might take other attempts, but at some point, an interaction between gnome-about-me and pam with cracklib installed causes hangs. -- gnome-about-me hang when changing passwords with libpam-cracklib https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/338976 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
