[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#515294: cryptsetup: Configurable passphrase prompt

Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.0.6-7
Severity: wishlist


Is it possible, please, to make the prompt for the LUKS passphrase at boot
time configurable.  At the moment it is 'hard coded' in
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/cryptroot

Apart from me (who wants to just prompt 'Authorised key:') there may well be
some who prefer to use a different language from English.

Thanks

Dick
