This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 2.21.8

---------------
ubiquity (2.21.8) vivid; urgency=medium

  * Automatic update of included source packages: grub-installer
    1.78ubuntu24, partman-auto 118ubuntu5, partman-efi 62ubuntu1.
  * ubiquity/plugins/ubi-partman.py: allow prompting for a missing passphrase
    on preseeded installs, if they are requesting to setup crypto.
    (LP: #1386131)
  * Add a fallback for a Greybird-themed background for the panel, for Xubuntu.
    Thanks to Simon Steinbeiß for the patch.

Title:
  Preseeding encrypted lvm fails instead of asking for password

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I was trying to preseed creating encrypted lvm for enabling unattended
  installation with ubiquity 2.18.8.2 (in trusty).

  The encryption password has NOT been preseeded. I was expecting a UI
  with a password prompt.

  The installation fails before partitioning with a message box:
  "Keyfile creation failed. An error occurred while creating the keyfile."

  ProblemType: Bug

  This issue is similar to #1386113 but the cause it different, because
  the patch provided for the other issue does not fix this problem.
