  Description     : library for password generation and password quality checking
    The libpwquality library purpose is to provide common functions for
    password quality checking and also scoring them based on their apparent
    randomness. The library also provides a function for generating random
    passwords with good pronounceability. The library supports reading and
    parsing of a configuration file.

    In the package there are also very simple utilities that use the library
    function and PAM module that can be used instead of pam_cracklib. The
    module supports all the options of pam_cracklib. 

Cheers,
