[Bug 1750645] Re: support encrypted block devices

[Tom Reynolds]

ccooke: As another Ubuntu user, I think I can answer this:

Please check the top of this bug report, where you will see two affected
projects: "Subiquity" and "Subiquity (Ubuntu)". The former is the
'upstream project', or the 'original software', the latter its
integration into Ubuntu. While Subiquity does seem to be an Ubuntu
centric software development effort (at this time), its development is
still tracked separately.

I assume that "Subiquity (Ubuntu)" will retain its current status of
"(bug is) confirmed" until the next Subiquity based server installer
Ubuntu releases - which will either be the next 18.04 LTS point release
(18.04.3, currently scheduled for August 01, 2019 as per
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseSchedule) or Ubuntu 19.10
(currently scheduled for October 17, 2019).

  support encrypted block devices

Status in subiquity:
  Fix Released
Status in subiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Boot image: 20180220
  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily-live/

  I tried to install the ubuntu-server daily live today and when
  presented with the partition program I noticed that almost all the
  interesting features are gone!

  There is no way to select encryption and lvm to start with.

  It doesn't scan the disks, basically if you have already any partition
  on any disk it will not show you anything. Just an option to create a
  new partition.

  This is really BAD!

  I've a machine with 3 HDs on which I would like to:
  - full encrypt all of them!
  - be able to use lvm to have swap and any number of partition on any disk
  - use ext 2 for /boot (which is not encrypted)

  At least I was able to configure the keyboard correct this time.
  By the way, the new install interface is terrible! The older one was a lot user friendly and did the work, this doesn't even look good.
