Description nvwarr 2019-11-12 07:46:24 UTC 
Description of problem:

system-config-rootpassword fails to install because it depends on non-existant python2-cracklib

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

system-config-rootpassword-1.99.6-20.fc31.noarch

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  sudo dnf install -y system-config-rootpassword

Actual results:

Error: 
 Problem: conflicting requests
  - nothing provides python2-cracklib needed by system-config-rootpassword-1.99.6-20.fc31.noarch
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)


Expected results:

should install

Additional info:

python2 bindings in cracklib were dropped completely "Fri Aug  9 2019 Tomáš Mráz" (from the changelog of cracklib) and it doesn't seem to have ever had python3 bindings.
