Title:
  lvm decryption passphrase is rejected if contain special characters

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Release of Ubuntu:13.04
  Package Version:
  Expected Results: passphrase can contain special characters
  Actual Results: passphrase with special characters is rejected

  this happens because the security key (passphrase) is requested before
  the keyboard layout setting, so when it is changed (english language
  and italian keyboard), the bug appear.

  Testcase:
  Run the Ubuntu installer and choose to install in a lvm
  For passphrase of lvm encryption choose one containing special characters (+èùàò-.,)
  Complete installation, reboot the system and verify that the passphrase will be rejected.
  If instead it contain only normal characters and numbers it is accepted.
  Thanks
  Fabio
