Public bug reported:
Issue: As soon as security keys for an encrypted ZFS setup are entered,
the system will get encrypted, even if this is not desired anymore and
has been deselected in the installation process prior to proceeding with
the installation.
Desired behavior: I expect that I can decide against encrypting my
system, even when I have entered and not submitted security keys
beforehand.
What happened: During the installation process, I first decided to go
for an encrypted ZFS partition layout. Thus, I chose 'Advanced
features', checked, 'Erase disk and use ZFS', as well as 'Encrypt the
new Ubuntu installation for security', and clicked OK. I then clicked
'Continue' and entered two matching security keys. I did not opted for a
recovery.
At this very point I changed my mind about encrypting the file system. I
just clicked 'Back' without clearing my previously entered security
keys. In 'Advanced features' I deselected the 'Encryption' checkbox and
clicked 'Continue'. I was then asked to confirm the partition layout,
which I did.
The rest of the installation went normal. As a surprise to me, I was
asked for the security key I had previously entered. The system then
boots normal.
Installation media: jammy-desktop-amd64.iso, downloaded March 11. Tested in
VirtualBox and QEMU.
