Sorry for the double-posting, the idea only occurred to me after sending my first comment.
Installing the "cryptsetup" package installs several dependencies, including a lot of boot-time stuff I do not need. I wondered if one of the dependencies could solve the problem by itself, and it turns out to be the case. In order to open a LUKS container and not hang in the process, "cryptsetup-bin" actually only needs "dmsetup" to be installed. So the Depends or Recommends should be on "dmsetup". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1589083 Title: crypsetup hangs when only cryptsetup-bin is installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/1589083/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
