[Bug 1481536] [NEW] cryptsetup unknown fs type or options error decrypting LUKS volume at boot

[Brian Knoll]

Public bug reported:

Since upgrading to cryptsetup-1.6.6-5ubuntu1 to replace
cryptsetup-1.6.1-1ubuntu7 today on my Ubuntu Wily 15.10 installation, I
have been receiving an error message at boot time after entering my
passphrase to unlock the LUKS partition.  I noticed that at the same
time the verbiage of the prompt to enter the passphrase also changed, to
something like "Please unlock <devicename>", which is a little different
than before, so I'm guessing something in this change may have caused
the error message.  Interestingly, the error message does not impede
successful system boot, so my suspicion is that the error is maybe not
real, but just being incorrectly displayed.  In other words, if I
successfully enter the passphrase, this error will appear but the system
will then proceed to boot successfully and have the encrypted volume
successfully mounted.
