You have been subscribed to a public bug: After installing cryptsetup it was not possible to encrypt an usb-stick or to open an encrypted usb-stick. In case of encryption (ext4) with e.g. "gnome-disks" it showed the error:
The function "bd_crypto_luks_open_blob" called, but not implemented! A solution for this problem was given in https://debianforum.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=166920 The installation of the library sudo apt-get install libblockdev-crypto2 was the solution. This library is not part of required dependencies of cryptsetup.
