Control: severity -1 minor I think thus far, nobody has done the analysis part for systemd.

This is not part of any default install as we tend to use a tmpfs for /tmp there. Despite the crypttab option supporting fstype, the generator really only supports mke2fs. Yes, it will create an ext2 filesystem. Does anybody really use that feature? > /lib/systemd/system/sys-kernel-debug.mount contains debugfs. According to > file it is a ASCII text False positive. Yeah, it's about the kernel filesystem type. > /lib/udev/rules.d/99-systemd.rules contains mke2fs. According to file it is a > ASCII text False positive. It does contain mke2fs in a comment. Given these, the only actual use is the systemd-cryptsetup-generator. The relevant option is not used by default. The option parsing is inconsistent with cryptsetup's description of the option. (Should I file a bug about that?) Poking random developers at the option resulted in "weird option". I think it warrants a "Suggests" at most. I'm in favour of just closing the bug. Does anyone disagree?
