+  * Mythbuntu does LTS only releases, so we should make sure this is fixed for LTS.
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  * Run an install with a password >=6 characters.  Check the VNC checkbox.
+  * See if install completes
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+  * As this is the only function affected by this patch and it fixes both places it's used (installer and control center) I don't see any other regression potential.
+ [Other Info]
