[Bug 1232237] [NEW] GRUB_CRYPTODISK_ENABLE should be GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK

[TJ]

Public bug reported:

There's a bug in the grub source package for encrypted disk support
where the shell environment variable is incorrectly named as
"GRUB_CRYPTODISK_ENABLE" when it should be "GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK".
This prevents grub-install from correctly building an encrypted
installation.

$ grep -rn GRUB_CRYPTODISK_ENABLE {/usr/share/grub/*,/usr/sbin/grub-install}
/usr/share/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib:74:  if [ x$GRUB_CRYPTODISK_ENABLE = xy ]; then
/usr/share/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib:167:  if [ x$GRUB_CRYPTODISK_ENABLE = xy ]; then
/usr/sbin/grub-install:707:    if [ x$GRUB_CRYPTODISK_ENABLE = xy ]; then

An in-place workaround is:

$ sudo sed -i 's/GRUB_CRYPTODISK_ENABLE/GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK/g'
{/usr/share/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib,/usr/sbin/grub-install}

Upstream now has a patch which does the same thing. See:
