partman-crypto: using UUID-based names for luks volumes
Hi,
now that Trixie has been released, might this be a good time to consider changing the default names given to luks-based volumes in partman-crypto by merging MR9 [1]?
Using "luks-<uuid>" matches the defaults used by dracut and systemd, meaning that it works as expected with various "rd.init.luks=" kernel command line parameters e.g. for dracut (which I assume might become a more common option in the future [2]). It also avoids situations where the luks device gets named e.g. "sdb2_crypt", even though the underlying device is e.g. sda2 once the system gets booted.
Cheers,
David
