I confirm this bug on kubuntu 8.10 and on current jaunty (as of today's date).
I didnt realise it was due to likewise install....
1) After editing the common-password file i was able to change passwords fine :)
2) I have also installed libpam-cracklib to make sure a new update doesn't 
recreate the problem

thanks for the pointers ;)
