Description
I don't know whether there will be anything we can fix here, but at least we'll need to document limitations.
So far I couldn't build cracklib_password_check "normally".
Debian (Wheezy 64bit)
ii crack 5.0a-9.3 amd64 Password guessing program
|
ii crack-common 5.0a-9.3 all Password guessing program
|
ii cracklib-runtime 2.8.19-3 amd64 runtime support for password checker library cracklib2
|
ii libcrack2 2.8.19-3 amd64 pro-active password checker library
|
ii libcrack2-dev 2.8.19-3 amd64 pro-active password checker library - development files
|
FascistCheckUser in crack - not found
|
Apparently (and Otto confirmed that I read it right), this https://launchpad.net/debian/+source/cracklib2/+changelog means that there is no (and will not be) FascistCheckUser for Wheezy. It will only be available for Jessie. So, no plugin on Debian.
Ubuntu (Trusty 64bit)
ii crack 5.0a-9.3 amd64 Password guessing program
|
ii crack-common 5.0a-9.3 all Password guessing program
|
ii cracklib-runtime 2.9.1-1build1 amd64 runtime support for password checker library cracklib2
|
ii libcrack2:amd64 2.9.1-1build1 amd64 pro-active password checker library
|
ii libcrack2-dev 2.9.1-1build1 amd64 pro-active password checker library - development files

|
$ ls /usr/include/crack.h
|
/usr/include/crack.h
|
Looking for include file crack.h - not found
|
Trying to compile the header separately, I get this:
/usr/include/crack.h:32:41: error: unknown type name âsize_tâ
|
size_t errmsg_len);
|
^
|
I added the line to crack.h:
#include <stddef.h>
|
After that, the header builds and cmake "finds" it normally, and cracklib_password_check gets built. Obviously it's not the right way to do things, but I don't know what is.
