Package: dropbear-initramfs
Version: 2018.76-5
Severity: important

On debian buster:

/usr/share/doc/dropbear-initramfs/README.initramfs says:

"You can unlock your rootfs on bootup remotely, using SSH to log in to
the booting system while it's running with the initramfs mounted.
Consult cryptsetup's /usr/share/doc/cryptsetup/README.Debian section 8
for details."

And, the instructions in the older
/usr/share/doc/cryptsetup/README.Debian no longer work, they said:
# echo -n "my_secret_passphrase" > /lib/cryptsetup/passfifo

This is preventing me from booting an encrypted install remotely.
