Posting this as solved right off in case anyone else happens to run into this.
The problem:
| Code: | # passwd username
Changing password for username
Enter the new password (minimum of 5, maximum of 127 characters)
Please use a combination of upper and lower case letters and numbers.
New password:
/usr/lib/cracklib_dict.pwd: No such file or directory
PWOpen: Illegal seek |
I got this after
Updated to cracklib today.
Found this thread searching the forums:
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-346949-highlight-cracklibdict.html
I'll save readers time, do:
| Code: | | # emerge cracklib-words |
Have a day!  |

Just a dump question...
Shouldn't "sys-apps/shadow" with useflag "cracklib" | Code: | | sys-apps/shadow-4.0.18.1-r1 USE="cracklib nls pam -nousuid (-selinux) -skey" |
depend on "sys-libs/cracklib" and pull in that packed?
regards
blubbi

I've found also another solution to this problem - you have to generate that file using the following command:
| Code: |
create-cracklib-dict /usr/share/dict/*
|

| Emerging cracklib-words worked for me. Is this a missing dependency? |
