Title:
Decryption passphrase prompt not displayed until escape is pressed
(Xubuntu hirsute test case)
Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in xubuntu-artwork package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Release: Xubuntu daily build (20210226 ISO). Testing installation with
lvm+encryption (1451)
SW and version: Not sure which package so reporting under cryptsetup.
Could be plymouth?
Expected: After a successful install with lvm+encryption, decryption
prompt should be displayed during boot to enter passphrase.
Actual: No prompt is displayed. If we hit 'Escape', text prompt is
displayed and hitting 'Escape' again shows graphical prompt. This is
main issue.
Secondary issue with UX.
a) on text prompt there is no space after the prompt. Not even colon.
b) on graphical prompt no box is provided so user is confused where to click mouse button (unless it is just my (wrong) assumption, most people click on text input area first before start typing). Also either the hidden box is wrongly aligned or too large so that typed passphrase is not center-aligned below prompt text.
Screenshots attached.
