Could you provide exact steps for how you installed Ubuntu where it
wasn't able to boot?

Title:
  ubuntu-desktop-minimal should depend on cryptsetup, lvm2

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The meta-packages ubuntu-desktop-minimal / ubuntu-minimal depend on
  everything needed for a functioning desktop / server installation
  respectively. Well, almost everything.

  Two packages that they don't depend on, but should, or at least it should recommend them are:
  - cryptsetup
  - lvm2

  The reason is that if Ubuntu was installed with disk encryption and/or
  LVM turned on, these packages are essential. The system won't even
  boot without cryptsetup, for example (found this out the hard way).

  The release of Ubuntu you are using: 22.10
  The version of the package you are using: ubuntu-desktop-minimal 1.497
