We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all
reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago
and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.
Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial) reached end-of-standard-support on April 29, 2021.
Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported when
using a currently supported release of Ubuntu? Please let us know if you
do otherwise this report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.

Title:
The gnome-disks utility allows users to select LUKS+EXT4 without
having cryptsetup installed
Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
Incomplete
Status in gnome-disk-utility package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Using a clean install of Ubuntu 16.04, the gnome-disks utility offers
users the option of selecting UKS+EXT4 when formatting disks. This
fails with:
Error creating LUKS device: Error spawning command-line `cryptsetup
luksOpen "/dev/sdb" "': Failed to execute child process "cryptsetup"
(No such file or directory) (g-exec-error-quark, 8) (udisks-error-
quark, 0)
Installing the cryptsetup package resolves this error.
Suggested resolution:
1) Don't offer LUKS+EXT4 as an option if cryptsetup is not installed
- or -
2) Rather than failing in the current manner, suggest to the user to install
cryptsetup
- or -
3) Include cryptsetup in the base install by default
