I see.  
"apt-mark auto '*'" may not be "supported" but it works and has been for a long 
time, even on Debian. If my installation wouldn't have had an encrypted root, I 
wouldn't have run into any issue. And I guess those with a non-encrypted setup 
don't need cryptsetup so in this sense ubuntu-minimal stays true to its name.

Title:
  ubuntu-desktop-minimal should depend on cryptsetup, lvm2

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The meta-packages ubuntu-desktop-minimal / ubuntu-minimal depend on
  everything needed for a functioning desktop / server installation
  respectively. Well, almost everything.

  Two packages that they don't depend on, but should, or at least it should 
recommend them are:
  - cryptsetup
  - lvm2

  The reason is that if Ubuntu was installed with disk encryption and/or
  LVM turned on, these packages are essential. The system won't even
  boot without cryptsetup, for example (found this out the hard way).

  The release of Ubuntu you are using: 22.10
  The version of the package you are using: ubuntu-desktop-minimal 1.497
