+ * pam_cracklib no longer checks for reuse of old passwords
+
+ The pam_cracklib module no longer checks /etc/security/opasswd to see
+ if the proposed password is one that was previously used. This
+ functionality has been split out into a new module, pam_pwhistory.
+
+ The pam_unix module still does its own check of /etc/security/opasswd,
+ so if you are using this module you should not need to change anything.
