Hi folks,

For years, the Debian pam packages have by default had a weaker password
length requirement than upstream.  I can think of no reason for this to be
the case, especially when upstream doesn't support a configurable minimum
password length and Debian does.

Does anyone else have a reasoned argument why Debian should have a weaker
password length check than upstream (4 chars instead of 6)?  If not, this
will be changed in the next upload of pam.

Cheers,
