Public bug reported:

Followup to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/1979159 whose
fix does not seem to be applying to upgrades using the official Ubuntu
22.04 upgrade pop-up notification.

I seem to have encountered this bug during a upgrade via the official
upgrade pop-up notification.

Has the fix in 1979159 in fact been moved to -updates and would be
included in a regular installation?

I upgraded a Ubuntu 20.04 desktop PC after it received the Ubuntu 22.04
upgrade pop-up notification, but could not unlock my encrypted root
after reboot, instead receiving an error to the effect of "Gave up
waiting for root device, ubuntu--vg-root does not exist" (not exact
wording).

The workaround in 1979159 via live boot + chroot did not seem to work,
and neither did running update + dist-upgrade which I hoped to resolve
the OpenSSL issue, though I was able to unlock manually via live boot. I
was pressed for time so did not pursue it further and did a full
reinstall via a backup.

I did not enable `jammy-proposed` for this failed upgrade as I did in my
initial successful testing of the 1979159 fix, which makes me suspect
this fix is not being included in upgrades done via `ubuntu-release-
upgrader` or `do-release-upgrade`.
