Package: plymouth
Version: 0.8.3-5
Severity: important
Hi,
plymouth does not work with old versions of cryptsetup for encrypted
root filesystems.
If / is encrypted, crypsetup needs to prompt for the
passphrase before mounting /. If plymouth is running, the normal
console prompt will not work, which will cause the boot to hang and
effectively make the system unbootable (unless there is an alternative
kernel installed).
This was apparently fixed in crypsetup 2:1.1.3-1 (or shortly before). So
maybe plymouth could conflict with crypsetup < 2:1.1.3-1 ?
Greetings,
S.Leske

severity 591706 wishlist
thanks
this is only an issue if you backport plymouth to lenny which is kind of
non-trivial as it requires newer libdrm, newer xorg and newer kernel,
and therefore kind of unlikely that anyone is doing that. if they do,
they can also add a cryptsetup backport to that list.
anyhow.. i don't care about lenny for plymouth, therefore closing the bug.
