Yes, in fact it still exists in 1.2.12-1.

lppasswd: Sorry, password rejected.
Your password must be at least 6 characters long, cannot contain
your username, and must contain at least one letter and number.

Enter password: (user enters xyz123)

lppasswd's password quality check still favours relatively easier passwords over really difficult-to-guess passwords.
