I agree that's the optimum, but that's not possible today, so I'm suggesting a workaround that would work for anyone who exclusively unlocks their system remotely. > With the introduction of plymouth also a bug was introduced I'm not disputing that, but this is not nearly so easy to fix as you suppose, and we're certainly not going to revert the plymouth support which fixed many other, much higher-impact bugs. > I think this bug can be fixed without a single line of code Sorry, but you're mistaken. The cryptsetup "askpass" helper doesn't support plymouth, instead cryptsetup uses the plymouth client directly, and that's currently mutually exclusive with remote unlocks without writing some significant code. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
