Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.0.6-6
Severity: wishlist
This is of course not very important and could happen at a later stage.
I'd suggest that timeout support is readded because it could be
useful, e.g. when some script tries to map a dm-crypt device, but the
usb-stick containing the key is not inserted, but the device is not so
important for that script.
Perhaps the same applies for the boot process.
I'd suggest that timeout control is the task of cryptsetup's higher
scripts at lest not that of the keyscripts.
One solution would be to start the keyscript with something like
/usr/share/doc/bash/examples/scripts/timeout .
I'd probably need help here too. Where would changes be have to
applied? The initramfs-scripts? Scripts like cryptdisk_start? What else?
thanks,
Chris.
