When changing password using gnome-about-me will never complete : waiting forever after the 2 passwords have been entered and clicked on "change password".
Clicking on "close" will close the window but password is not changed at all (even after disconnecing).
FYI: I'm using french translation of Ubuntu.
Thanks for your help

Hi,
In fact, I was able to change password. Problem occurs only when changing to a too similar password (for example from somepassword1 to somepassword2, only one letter changed).
Here is what passwd (in command line) says in that case : Bad: new password must be different than the old one
So the bug is only in the handling of passwd results....
Maybe passwd should not answer for password again.
Regards?
