Public bug reported:
The command `cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/DEVICE NAME' no longer works when
NAME==DEVICE. It
used to work in edgy. For example, the command
# cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda6 sda6
fails (well, cryptsetup succeeds, but /dev/mapper/sda6 gets the "linear"
target, so it's unusable).
More generally,
# cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda6 sda4
also fails. Both worked fine in edgy. A more detailed transcript
follows:
The following used to work in edgy, but doesn't work after upgrading to
feisty:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# dmsetup ls | grep sda6
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~#
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda6 sda6
Enter LUKS passphrase:
key slot 0 unlocked.
Command successful.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# mount /dev/mapper/sda6 /crypt
mount: unknown filesystem type 'crypto_LUKS'
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# dmsetup status sda6
0 18603207 linear
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# dmsetup remove sda6
This, however, does work in feisty:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda6 foo
Enter LUKS passphrase:
key slot 0 unlocked.
Command successful.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# mount /dev/mapper/foo /crypt
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# df -hT /crypt
Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# dmsetup status foo
