Could you try one of fedocal, elections or nuancier, just try the login. 
Bodhi doesn't yet use OpenID, so while it shows that your password works maybe
there is something withe OpenID or with pkgdb itself.

It was in response to: `There is no "request reset password" button` if you
wanted to change your password, you would have to do it in FAS.
