Everyone should always update their apps as soon as new releases are available, as a matter of standard practice.

For example, this WhatsApp update was pushed out and automatically installed on my devices the same day it was announced.

And don't forget to regularly make backups of your data.

update-cracklib(8)					      System Manager's Manual						update-cracklib(8)

NAME
update-cracklib - Regenerate cracklib dictionary SYNOPSIS
update-cracklib DESCRIPTION
update-cracklib builds a compressed and accumulated version of wordlists stored in the directories given in cracklib's configuration file /etc/cracklib/cracklib.conf. Programs using cracklib2 need this database to be of any use. By default this script is called by cron every day. RESULT
update-cracklib prints out two numbers: the number of words read from the ASCII dictionaries and the number of words eventually written into the cracklib database; if no error occurred, these should be equal. 0 is returned on success, otherwise an error message is printed to standard error and -1 is returned. FILES
/etc/cracklib/cracklib.conf shell script that sets cracklib_dictpath_src which must be a space separated list of source dictionary files. SEE ALSO
cracklib(3), crack_mkdict(8) AUTHOR
This program and manual page was written by Martin Pitt <martin@piware.de> for the Debian GNU/Linux System (but may be used by others). Martin Pitt June 09, 2003 update-cracklib(8)
