Hi,

in case the desired behavior is to allow password change in case of this feature is enabled and password is weak, please ignore my misunderstanding.

i think myuid !=0 is an unecessary check as it depends on feature ENABLE_FEATURE_PASSWD_WEAK_CHECK not on myuid,

why is myuid checked here ?, the comment says non-root users are not allowed to have weak passwords , can you explain ?

it shouldn't matter who the user is as long as the feature is enabled the password shouldn't be week.

Thanks

Haroon
