I assume "switching back to unencrypted /boot" means just tweaking our
Calamares settings.

** Package changed: calamares (Ubuntu) => calamares-settings-ubuntu
(Ubuntu)

Title:
  Installing with full disk encryption when using a non-English keyboard
  layout results in difficulties unlocking the disk

Status in calamares-settings-ubuntu package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Boot the Lubuntu Lunar Final ISO.
  2. Launch Calamares and set the language to "Spanish (Mexico)".
  3. Proceed through the installer until you get to the partitioning screen.
  4. At the partitioning screen, enable encryption and type a passphrase that includes a double-quote symbol.
      - On a Spanish keyboard the double-quote symbol is on the same key as the @ symbol on an English keyboard. So if you have an English keyboard, type a passphrase like P@ssphrase1 or something.
  5. Finish the installation process.
  6. Reboot.
  7. Attempt to enter the disk passphrase exactly as you had entered it into Calamares.

  Expected result: The disk should unlock and Lubuntu should boot.

  Actual result: An "access denied" error is shown and you are dropped
  to a "grub rescue>" prompt. You can unlock the disk if you reboot and
  type the passphrase, but using the English double-quote rather than
  the Spanish one. (For instance, if you have an English keyboard, you
  would have typed P@ssphrase1 into Calamares but would then have to
  type P"ssphrase1 to unlock the disk.)
