It is
But now these scripts just exit with an OK status if this file is not present/readable... Under my assumption above it should be a grave error instead.
No, because the init scripts can under some conditions still be left on your system even after you've removed the cryptsetup package. Checking in init.d scripts for some necessary components and silently exiting if they're missing is quite common.
Example - /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.1 line 17: [ -r /usr/share/postgresql-common/init.d-functions ] || exit 0
It would be nice if README.Debian provided documentation how the scripts are intended to work together.
Why? If the cryptdisks.functions script is missing even though you haven't removed the cryptsetup package from your system something is seriously broken.
