Title:
  cryptsetup initramfs-tools hooks conf always sets FRAMEBUFFER=y

Status in cryptsetup package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  If cryptsetup is installed, even if no partition is encrypted, the
  generated initramfs will be much larger than necessary, because all
  framebuffer/DRM drivers will be included.

  This causes systems with low memory to not be able to boot at all.
  That includes systems that are kdumping. On x86, they usually only
  have 128M of memory allocated. That makes them fail to decompress the
  initramfs or OOM very early.
