[Bug 532909] [NEW] Kubuntu doesn't mount encrypted discs

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Binary package hint: cryptsetup

When you connect a "dm-crypt" encrypted device to your Kubuntu system,
the "device notifier" informs you that you just plugged in an encrypted
container. When you click on this notification, it says to you that it
"Cannot mount the disc."

If you install cryptsetup, everything works fine afterwards: When you
plug a encrypted device, you are asked for the passphrase and then can
mount the device.

Possible solutions:
a) The package "cryptsetup" should be included in standard Ubuntu installation.
b) When you plug a encrypted device to Kubuntu and cryptsetup is not installed, you should get a message like "You have to install 'cryptsetup' to access to this device."
