The trick from #22 doesn't work anymore as of 23.10


It is shameful that a basic security feature has been broken for over a decade. I wonder who is to blame for such irresponsibility and negligence.

Title:
  Bug in ubiquity-frontend-kde: Can't create LUKS encrypted volumes
  during manual disk setup in Kubuntu 17.10 (does not affect Ubuntu,
  Ubuntu MATE, or Ubuntu Budgie)

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Selecting "Manual" under disk setup if I add a "/boot" and then create
  the next partition as "physical volume for encryption" I'm then given
  no way to use that volume (i.e formatting and setting up the
  passphrase so I can put LVM or FS on it). See crypto-no-usable-
  options.png.

  None of the available buttons on the screen do anything useful at this
  point and additionally it's very easy to accidentally trigger bug
  #1510730 while looking for some way to apply the layout.

  Basically there doesn't seem to be any way to do custom layouts using
  crypto in ubiquity currently.
