[13:00:45] <tituspijean[m]> I've just gotten this while installing a My Webapp:
```
Warning: /var/cache/cracklib/cracklib_dict.pwd: No such file or directory
Warning: BAD PASSWORD: The password fails the dictionary check - error loading dictionary
```
[13:03:12] <tituspijean[m]> ah, https://github.com/YunoHost/yunohost/blob/b269cfbc01ea904c2270143a9969591a2ad251e9/src/utils/password.py#L42C11-L42C134 the URL does not exist
[13:04:43] <tituspijean[m]> ah, I'm on unstable trixie on that server
[13:07:01] <tituspijean[m]> but I'm lost, we do not use cracklib directly, right? We use a dump of the most common passwords that has been downloaded manually (https://github.com/YunoHost/yunohost/blob/078e74741846ffd35c5d8551f396e04eb2e5834c/src/utils/password.py#L42, that specific file does not exist anymore BTW)
[13:08:39] <tituspijean[m]> wait, it's the system doing that check?

```
