Yes this is a bug being discussed on the main devel and anaconda lists. Try Fedora_Project123! the set it to whatever you want afterwords. If that doesn't work use "YouHaveToBeKiddingMeYouIdioticInstaller" (the " are part of the password.) I change out Idiotic with various Anglo Saxon Norse words which are not proper to use on a mailing list.
 
Passwords that in the past scored strong are now weak.  Etc. 
If you skip the initial-setup password and do it with passwd, you can 'get by' with the old rules.

I actually think there is an error in the password strenght logic. I suspect it is looking at the text and saying, boy there are words there so it is crackable.  Even if there are 6 words, each of different length.  I know this as the 6 word one I tried got flagged as weak.
