Hello Joerg,

You promised to do some more debugging regarding this bug. Did you
already make any efforts?

I still don't understand how to reproduce the bug. My understanding of
cryptdisks initscript code is that it processes /etc/crypttab line for
line, from the head to the tail. There is no code to sort or randomly
mix the lines.

If you're not able to reproduce the bug any more, then I'm pretty sure
that it was a problem at your installation, not in the debian package.
