LUKS is supposed to be the future, but it's not in Debian proper yet.  You
can use it if you install it manually, but I read that there may be another
on-disk format change coming.  I'm not sure if that's true, but if it is,
it would be wise to wait until the change happens.

I may be wrong, but I think the current state-of-the-art in Debian is
cryptsetup.  Works well, AFAIK.  I think there's at least one article on
www.debian-administration.org about it.
