Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be
reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the stable
release - Oneiric Ocelot. It would help us greatly if you could test
with it so we can work on getting it fixed. You can find out more about
the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again
and we appreciate your help.

Title:
  Wrong password error for encrypted volume instead of cryptsetup
  absence notification.

Status in “gnome-disk-utility” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-disk-utility

  I have an encrypted partition with a lot of data on it. Just installed the system and tried to mount it.
  And it says "Wrong password" when I'm 99% sure that the password is right. I just thought that it's the end and everything is lost.
  And when I run palimpsest from terminal it also didn't throw anything to stdout. So I had to google it and discovered that it's just (!) missing cryptsetup package (which is present in the liveCD AFAI understand as there was no problems mounting it).

  It is _very_ (!) misleading and frightening. Please add distinction
  between cryptsetup absence and really wrong password.
