It doesn't have a gui that I know of, but I use pwgen from the Fedora
repositories.  It warns that the passwords are less secure than fully
random passwords, but it allows passwords to be required to have a
capital, a number, and a special character.  When I put a 16 or 18
character password into a strength checker, it always comes out as
highly secure.

Of course, I don't remember those, I keep them in an encrpyted file and
cut and paste them where needed.  Not sure how secure using the
paste buffer would be on a shared system.
