Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.7.2-2
Severity: critical

I followed Bug #839888 and was happy that it was fixed so fast.

However, today I updated my machine at work that has no systemd at all
and has full disk encryption (including /boot) as my company needs that.

I just found the box completly unbootable with dropping me to initram.

I am still trying to recover the system but it seems that the patch for
#839888 in combination with version 2:1.7.2-1 broke the system.

Note that the bug was written on a other system as the system in
question has no support for mail and is unbootable currently. So i left
only the relevant ones that matches the machine.
