Title:
Installed focal Ubuntu desktop .2 media with LUKS full disk encryption.
On boot the fsck messages briefly flicker, and then are cleared, then
there is smooth transition to gdm.
It's a lot better than before, where fsck message would linger forever.
It would be ideal to make it flickerfree. Aka

installed focal daily with LUKS and plymouth 0.9.4git20200323-0ubuntu6.1
; i could see that on boot the ctrl+c message is there after unlock,
briefly, and then cleared.
Then i downgraded to 0.9.4git20200323-0ubuntu6 and instead of brief
ctrc+c message, it lingers for a lot longer until gdm3

Hello Kees, or anyone else affected,
Accepted plymouth into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/0.9.4git20200323-0ubuntu6.1
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package.
Turns out, the missing fsck progress bar is a regression:

Nowadays, SSDs are much more common and enable_periodic_fsck = 0 has been the
default for many years now. So this is much less of an issue today then it was
back in 2015, I think.
As for text-only boot: Maybe we could convince upstream to enable
verbose mode once an fsck takes longer then say 30s (similar to how the
eye-of-cyclon animation kicks in when services take a long time to
start). With something like that implemented, dropping fsckd might be an
option, I think.

This patch was worked with upstream and even merged in systemd master.
Howwever, after a month, Lennart decided to revert it because he strongly
thinks that no feedback on fsck is needed because "everyone have fast SSD
disks". (frustrating experience after working for a good 3 months getting
Note: from what I see above, the issue is on the plymouth new
integration (I think it’s xnox that changed it) modifying the logic
displaying the cancelling message. Maybe worth digging there?

I would be happy to see this patch merged upstream.
There was an attempt a few years ago:
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-March/029186.html
Eventually it was removed again:
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/96d9117ad2db7d8c13f7898127eee8939e88daf1
@rbalint, @didrocks, @mbiebl, we've been carrying the systemd-fsckd
custom patch for 5 years now (via Debian)...can we either get it
upstreamed, or drop it? I don't think continuing to carry it ourselves
is a good idea. Note that not only is there this bug, but also the
systemd-fsckd autopkgtest

Are you sure about that? Is the footer functionality explicitly bound to
fsck or is it more general? I thought (from memory) that it was more
general and therefore it's the client's job to clear it. But I'm only
going from memory. Glad you fixed it.

You received this bug notification because
Plymouth does not clear the footer at the end of fsck.
But with that fix in-place it still looks like fsckd flickers the ctrl+c
message, despite not having any progress to show.
