Package: debian-installer Version: 20121114 Severity: normal Tags: d-i Hi, if my understanding of partman-crypto's blockdev-keygen's code is correct, one isn't able to preseed the passphrase for encrypted LVM: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=d-i/partman-crypto.git;a=blob;f=blockdev-keygen (See get_passphrase; also, my experiments seem to agree.) The comments at the top even say: # This handles sensitive data that must not be swapped out # or written out to disk unencrypted. # # Important: before running this script the caller has # to check for unsafe swap partitions. This is done in # choose_method/encrypt/do_options. # # Assumption: This runs as part of d-i. Therefore, temp # files outside of /target reside in a ramdisk. Process # information (think [ "$pass" ]) is not exposed to anyone # but the installing user. If we are to continue disallowing preseeding those parts, I believe it would be nice to have that documented in the example preseed file. Comments anyone? Mraw, KiBi.

Hi, Some notes on the general bug mail/management: James Addison <jay@jp-hosting.net> (2023-06-01): > Source: partman-crypto > Followup-For: Bug #694154 > Control: fixed -1 partman-crypto/77 Can't you use `bts -m show $N` instead of using followup-for? It's always a mess when it comes to tracking other recipients… Also, you could use reply-all, and not miss the submitter (like in this case). > It looks like this was resolved[1] in partman-crypto version 77 > (Debian bug #656710 / Ubuntu launchpad issue #546405 for the same) - > can we close this bugreport? > > [1] - https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/partman-crypto/-/commit/be0a3afab31ba7a174047289c3aa5df179c6a794 Either we can or we cannot; adding fixed without closing only goes half-way and feels weird and inconsistent… In this specific case: closing.
