Steve: Yeah I agree with all of your assessments. To address your
questions:

> What precisely did this look like before you commented it out?

Nothing was commented out initially. I commented both out as an
experiment before posting the bug.

> Have you tested with uncommentin the cryptswap1 fstab line yet? What
was the esult?

Yes, it seems to be working normally.

> if re-enabling the fstab line causes your stability problems to
reappear, this likely points to an underlying problem with swap on your
system, not an issue with cryptsetup itself...

I plan on giving it a try sometime soon. I am, though, just a little bit
worried about some kind of corruption permanently affecting something I
use for work or long-term operation of the system. "Random errors from
programs" as I stated in my original report probably sounds a lot like
running out of memory, but to be clear, I had plenty of free RAM, using
under a gigabyte of the four I have.

So, to close this up: definitely an installer/upgrader problem, not an
actual operation problem, with cryptsetup. Is your reason for pointing
this out because I filed my bug improperly, or just taking stock of the
situation?

hasta luego :)
