Subject: kdepasswd: hangs if PAM rejects the new password because it's too weak
X-Mailer: reportbug 1.50

Package: kdepasswd
Version: 4:2.2.2-9
Severity: important
If the PAM module has the "min" option set (4 is default in Debian), and you
try to set a password which is shorter than that, kdepasswd hangs. It also
hangs if you try to set a weak password such as 'aaaa'.
This is confusing to newbies, as such weak passwords are accepted
during the installation process - kdepasswd shoud really print out the
error message from passwd instead of hanging.
Relevant strace output:
read(7, "\nBad: new password is too short\n"..., 255) = 57
select(8, [7], NULL, NULL, {1, 0}) = 0 (Timeout)
wait4(681, 0xbffff07c, WNOHANG, NULL) = 0
(last two lines repeated ad infinitum)
By the way, your kdepasswd 3.0.3-1 packages also suffer from this problem.

this is now fixed, since at least 2003-06-22. see http://bugs.kde.org/56860.
