Bug#506634: cryptsetup: failed to setup lvm device

[Hanspeter Kunz]

Package: lvm2
Version: 2.02.39-4
Severity: important

Hi,

I have two sid systems with all filesystems except /boot on an encrypted
lvm device. Since yesterday, both of them do not boot properly anymore.
I guess this is caused by the lvm2 upgrade. 

After passphrase entry, get the following error:

   cryptsetup: failed to setup lvm device

After some time I get

   Gave up waiting for the root device. [...]

and I'm dropped into busybox, I can continue the boot process by
running 

   . /scripts/local-top/lvm2

I saw that there is also an

   /scripts/local-top/lvm

If I run this script it just spats out the exact same message that I
already got ("Gave up waiting for the root device. [...]").

I do not know much about the linux boot process but
maybe /scripts/local-top/lvm is an old file (from ealier versions of
lvm) and should be remove?

cheers,
Hp.
