Ah. Forgot to mention: I'd be happy to take over maintainership of this port. Also, from my checks, there are no dependencies on this port currently.

See ticket 14101 for the cracklib-words port.

Hi,

committed in r33588.

How hard would it be to build the python module(s) as variants? Are you sure the cracklib-words dictionary isn't a run depends too? Is the pw_dict.* losless?

Building the python modules as variants seems like a good idea -- I will investigate this further.

The cracklib-words dictionary, on the other hand, isn't a run depends as well because it is compressed lossless into the pw_dict files. Once those files are built (according to the author) it shouldn't require the dictionaries anymore. I will do some additional testing to verify this on my own later on during the week.
