Public bug reported:

Running Ubuntu Server 17.10 preview downloaded from cdimages.ubuntu.com.

update-initramfs produces a warning complaining that CRYPSETUP should
not be set in /etc/initramfs.conf, but in /etc/cryptsetup-initramfs
/conf-hook. This happens with or without full disk encryption.

$ sudo update-initramfs -u
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-4.13.0-12-generic
WARNING: Setting CRYPTSETUP in /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf is 
deprecated and will stop working in the future. Use 
/etc/cryptsetup-initramfs/conf-hook instead.

Further investigation showed that the warning is produced by the script
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/cryptroot, part of package cryptsetup.
The warning is caused by the configuration file /usr/share/initramfs-
tools/conf-hooks.d/overlayroot, part of the package overlayroot, which
sets CRYPTSETUP=1. Both packages are dependencies on ubuntu-server and
get installed by default.
