I'm actually reporting about three installs, all focused on
testing partman-crypto in different languages (german, spanish,
french). They were all done on the same system.

The tasks in tasksel ("Desktop environment", ..) were not
translated into the respective languages but shown in english.
I think in previous installs they used to be translated. Other
than that the translations looked fine from what I could tell
with my limited knowledge of spanish and french :-)

I also noticed one thing related to wiping partitions in
preparation of encryption: The progressbar shown while
blockdev-wipe runs was wildly inaccurate. It proceeded to 100%
very quickly and then remained there for close to ten seconds.
Overall the wipe seemed to complete too quickly compared the
speed that this old harddisk is capable of (~3MB/s). I'll
reassign this to partman-crypto and investigate.

cheers,
Max

Maintainer: Debian Install System Team <debian-boot@lists.debian.org>

Description: 
 partman-crypto - Add to partman support for block device encryption (udeb)
 partman-crypto-dm - Add to partman support for dm-crypt encryption (udeb)
 partman-crypto-loop - Add to partman support for loop-AES encryption (udeb)
Closes: 381135
Changes: 
 partman-crypto (9) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   [ Max Vozeler ]
   * blockdev-wipe: Open the device with O_SYNC to avoid
     out-of-memory situations during partition erase, which appear
     to be caused by overcommit and a large number of queued
     requests. As a side-effect this helps to provide accurate
     information in the progressbar. Closes: #381135
 .
   * blockdev-wipe: To compensate for the performance impact
     of O_SYNC increase blocksize from 4k to 64k.
 .
   * crypto_tools.sh: Use 128 bit (instead of 256 bit)
     random key when setting up dm-crypt for partition erase.
     This should speed up erase a bit. Also take the key from
     /dev/urandom so we don't risk a blocking read.
