[Bug 1223622] Re: add support for crypttab mounting of luks devices with detached headers

[Attila Lendvai]

it would be nice if someone could comment the debian bug URL's here, or
anything like that, so that distant wanderers like me can have an idea
how much work it is today to set up on debian jessie.

Title:
  add support for crypttab mounting of luks devices with detached
  headers

Status in cryptsetup package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  A detached luks header for a luks device is a new feature in
  cryptsetup 1.4.  This is a feature request to allow the unlocking of
  luks devices with detached headers, both as a root device (ie in the
  initrd) as well as using the init system.

  system.
