[Bug 185380] Re: Updating cryptsetup fails

[hannes]

Here's two straces of "apt-get install cryptsetup". One called with
parameter "-f", one without.

The console output was:
----
Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
cryptsetup is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.

After unpacking 0B of additional disk space will be used.
Setting up cryptsetup (2:1.0.5-2ubuntu2.1) ...

Processing triggers for initramfs-tools ...
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.22-14-generic
Errors were encountered while processing:

I'm not used to strace, but to me it looks like line 1349 in the non-
fork trace marks the beginning of the endless loop.
