[Bug 1310174] Re: "cryptsetup" should be included and installed by default in ubuntu 14.04

 

I too ran in to a problem after upgrading a luks full disk encrypted
12.04.5 system to 14.04.1. After successfully upgrading, upon reboot I
was asked for the luks password for the root system. After entering the
password, I see sever errors including "/sbin/cryptsetup not found".

After doing research I came across bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/1256730. After
booting from a rescue cd, creating the file in comment #4 and updating
the initrd, the cryptsetup could be found in the initrd.

Another reboot and all was good.

Bug description:
  After upgrade from ubuntu 13.10 to 14.04 lts, I am unable to ulock my
  luks device. It gives the following error message:

  Error unlocking /dev/sda6: Error spawning command-line `cryptsetup
  luksOpen "/dev/sda6" "luks-9082ff43-d991-4bf1-8bb6-ef8452e3e11a" ':
  Failed to execute child process "cryptsetup" (No such file or
  directory) (g-exec-error-quark, 8)

  Then I noticed that the package "cryptsetup" was not installed in my
  system.

  "cryptsetup" should be included and installed as default in ubuntu
  14.04 lts, as it was in the previous releases.
