Title:
  Lubuntu full disk encryption password quality check on installation is
  confused by (

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Installing from lubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386.iso in VirtualBox, select
  Encrypt the new Ubuntu Installation...  When entering the security key
  is requested, and as one types it a quality indicator appears to the
  right of the input box

  Adding an open bracket to a strong password, however, seems to confuse
  the quality checker, for instance:

  Entered			Displayed
  abcab			weak
  abcab1			fair
  abcab12			good
  abcab12#$		strong
  abcab12#$(		short

  Furthermore, after using the final password, I am not able to mount
  the installation, as it complains of a bad passphrase.
