Name        : libpwquality
Product     : Fedora 37
Version     : 1.4.5
Release     : 3.fc37
URL         : https://github.com/libpwquality/libpwquality/
Summary     : A library for password generation and password quality checking
Description :
This is a library for password quality checks and generation
of random passwords that pass the checks.
This library uses the cracklib and cracklib dictionaries
to perform some of the checks.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update strengthens the dependency on cracklib-dicts, which was previously
dropped from "Requires" to "Suggests", up to "Recommends". Dropping to Suggests
was meant to allow Fedora CoreOS to omit it, but it also led to it being left
out in many other cases where it really ought to be included, because not having
it causes various "set/change password" operations that run through pam to fail.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Strengthen cracklib-dicts dependency to Recommends (#2158891)
